CloudNativeSecurityCon 2023: A Unique Community Event Focused On the Future of Open Source and Cloud Native Security

The 2023 conference season officially kicked off on February 1st in Seattle. Over 1000 attendees, speakers, and security tool vendors gathered in Seattle for CloudNativeSecurityCon, the first stand-alone, in-person event of its kind. Over the course of 2 days and over 70 presentations, the cloud-native security community shared their knowledge about the state of open-source security. Along the way, we had some great times and conversations about SBOMs, SLSA, SCA, and the many security challenges we all face.

With so much packed into the two days of the event, it would be impossible to cover it all, so here are just a few highlights.
