Developers have a hard enough time creating scalable, resilient, cloud-native applications - making them secure adds a whole other level of complexity. Dapr (dapr.io) was designed from the start to solve developer challenges of building secure, distributed applications. This session outlines key security scenarios developers have to contend with such as enabling secure communication methods, limiting services and their dependencies' attack blast radius, managing secrets to access resources and dealing with application identities. Complete with multiple live demos, attendees will leave with an understanding of how Dapr makes building secure distributed applications a breeze so that developers can focus on business logic and sleep better at night.
