Make your CFO happy: Secure your infrastructure from over-provisioning with Policy-as-Code

In today's world, hardly anyone provisions the customer and its infrastructure in a manual way. Teams create complex modules that often contain hundreds of lines of code, and their use by Operations ends with the completion of variables and the pressing of the ‘Deploy’ button. This is super cool. However, we must be aware that this approach carries the risk of error. A resource configured in the wrong region, a service key with high privileges without a proper rotation policy or an over-provisioned high memory count virtual machine are just a few of the dangers. So it's super important to have a way to provisioning resources along with organization policies. This is why PoC ( Policy as Code ) is super important.

For anyone who is working with Terraform and IaC within his Google Cloud organization. No matter if you are developing modules, or simply filling out variables fields.

Google Cloud PAM Story: From Workspace groups to time-based access with Okta, PAM, and Terraform.

Discover how to build an effective privileged access management system in Google Cloud. This session combines PAM (Privileged Access Management) theory with practical implementation using Okta Workflows and Google Workspace. You will learn how to:

- Distinguish between IAM and PAM
- Build an architecture that combines Workspace groups, Okta workflows, and PAM entitlements
- Implement time-based access—from request to approval to automatic revoke
- Apply the principles of least privilege and separation of duties in practice
- Automate access for on-call engineers using time-aware workflows

Accidental Expert: Surviving Impostor Syndrome as a GDE

Becoming a Google Developer Expert is an honor — but it doesn’t erase self-doubt. In this talk, I’ll share my journey from on-premises infrastructure to Google Cloud, navigating the challenges of being a solo cloud advocate, and learning to thrive despite constant impostor syndrome. Through personal stories, practical strategies, and lessons learned, you’ll discover how doubt can become a growth engine, why vulnerability is a strength, and how even “accidental experts” can make a real impact. This session is for anyone in tech who’s ever felt underqualified, overwhelmed, or unsure — and wants to turn that feeling into fuel for learning, contribution, and career growth.
