Is security an after-thought in your development workflow?

Security is commonly an after-thought in software development. But should that really be the case? What if we could be confident in the dependencies we're using, easily test our code within our development lifecycle and identify secrets before they're leaked in our source code?

Join Chris as he discusses how you can bring security into your lifecycle, and not make it an after-thought!

GitHub - More than just a Git repository

Chris develops his personal blog, podcast and vlogging platform using GitHub - but not just the code! He plans the content schedule using GitHub Issues and Projects (Beta), develops content with GitHub Codespaces and Copilot and Builds, Tests & Releases to www.cloudwithchris.com using GitHub Actions.

Join Chris to find out how GitHub is more than version control, and can help you throughout your entire development lifecycle.

Using GitHub Actions to Deploy to Azure

You've heard of GitHub. You've heard of GitHub Actions. You've heard of Azure. But how can GitHub Actions help you deploy your workloads to Azure?

Luckily, we have you sorted as we explore tips and tricks to help you get started inner-sourcing in your organisation!

Passwordless deployments to Microsoft Azure with GitHub Actions

Managing passwords for our deployments can be frustrating. Especially the toil if any leak, and then having to update them all...

But, what if you didn't need passwords at all? Join Chris, as he explores how you can use OpenID Connect to trust your cloud provider, enabling you to deploy easily, securely and safely.

GitHub for the Data Professional

GitHub is just that tool which developers use on Open Source projects, right? Not quite!

You could be using Github in your day-to-day work. Have you thought about storing your SQL scripts, or machine learning workbooks in Git repositories?

How about checking the quality of the content that you've version controlled? Or thinking about the security of your project?

These are all things that GitHub can help with! Join Chris in this session as he provides a holistic overview for data professionals on Git, GitHub, GitHub Enterprise and GitHub Advanced Security.
