DSP at Oracle CloudWorld 2024 – Session Blends Recommendations: Security Basics

In this series of blogs, we will discuss the idea of session blends, i.e., two sessions that would be worth seeing as they complement each other.

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Security from the Ground Up [LRN1160]

Build a Secure Landing Zone on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure [LRN1177]

These two sessions are a perfect match. Even those who have been working on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for some while need to ensure that they are up to speed with the latest developments in terms of security. Tools like Cloud Guard and Data Safe were never there at OCI's inception. They have been built into the platform. If you don't know what those are, you should attend. If you do, you should still attend. The audience level for this is everyone from beginner to advanced. Hence, it will cover some core fundamentals and some innovations.
One of the key things is that it will cover Oracle Security Zones, which have also evolved in Oracle Cloud. There is a lot of information from Oracle on Security Zones:

• Documentation: https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/security-zone/using/security-zones.htm
• CIS Security Zone: https://docs.oracle.com/en/solutions/cis-oci-benchmark/index.html#GUID-89CA48AA-73E1-4992-A43F-CA5FA5CE21CD
• GitHub Security Zones: https://github.com/oracle-quickstart/oci-landing-zones

Where do you start… well, that is why session two is a perfect blend. 'Build a Secure Landing Zone', is hosted by Oracle and the Centre for Internet Security, which has Landing Zone frameworks to cover NIST, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, etc. If previous Oracle CloudWorlds are to go by, there will also be a genius bar where you can ask questions about this topic.

A quick search on the content catalogue shows that if you want the ultimate blend, there are six other Landing Zone sessions, https://reg.rf.oracle.com/flow/oracle/ocw24/catalog/page/catalog?search=landing%20zone
