We attended another conference, CryptoFest 2015, where we spoke about container and SSH security. Watch the recordings.
CryptoFest regularly covers current security topics, which of course interest us too. We contributed two talks on behalf of vpsFree.cz.
Container virtualization security (Pavel Šnajdr)
Containers have seen a major revival in recent months. With projects such as Docker and CoreOS, they are quickly becoming familiar to Linux administrators around the world. Security, however, is often badly neglected. We will take a fairly quick look at the security of Linux containers, development trends and what you can do if you want to deploy containers.
Is SSH still secure? (Jakub Jelen)
A closer look at the SSH protocol, its properties and the techniques it uses, not only in the light of attacks and vulnerabilities published in recent years. A brief introduction to the conditions needed for successful attacks, how the most common implementation, OpenSSH, defends against them, and how server administrators and users can improve security with advanced configuration or third-party programs.
Recordings of all the CryptoFest talks are available in a YouTube playlist.
