Cloud Convergence: Exploring the Interconnected World of Cloud, DevOps and AD in Penetration Testing

In today's digital landscape, the convergence of cloud computing, DevOps practices, and internal Active Directory (AD) infrastructure has become increasingly prevalent, shaping the way organizations deploy, manage, and secure their IT environments. This presentation delves into the interconnected world of Cloud, DevOps tools and AD, exploring the security implications and challenges inherent in this complex ecosystem.

As organizations embrace cloud technologies and DevOps methodologies to drive agility and innovation, they are also confronted with new cybersecurity risks and increased attack surface. Cyber attackers are stirring their focus on currently easier exploitation of vulnerabilities in cloud environments, leveraging misconfigurations, weak authentication mechanisms, and insecure DevOps pipelines to gain unauthorized access, compromise sensitive data, and disrupt operations.

Through real-world examples and case studies, this presentation highlights the impact of cyber attacks on cloud, DevOps, and AD environments, illustrating the potential consequences of security breaches. Attendees will gain insights into common attack vectors, defensive strategies, and best practices for securing these interconnected environments. By understanding the interconnected nature of these technologies and the security implications therein, organizations can better protect their digital assets and mitigate the risk of cyber attacks in today's rapidly evolving threat landscape.
