Somewhere in your organization, maybe on your desk, maybe in your data center, is infrastructure that isn't immutable, and it's helpful to know what's going on with that infrastructure. osquery lets you do just that with SQL, joins and all. We'll take a look at the sorts of data you can pull with osquery, and the use cases that data fits into, ranging from "is this machine set up correctly?" to "is this machine infected?"
I am super excited to give my talk at @DoDAustin today at 11:20am!
My talk is called "Give Up! Just Stop Patching Vulnerabilities!" and is all about taking a proactive approach to application security. DevOps practitioners are a critical starting point for implementing security and building in best practices!
If you are in attendance, I hope to see you there and that you'll come talk to me!

Tired of endlessly patching vulnerabilities? It’s time to rethink the game. This talk challenges the reactive approach to vulnerability management and offers actionable strategies for developers to prevent first-party vulnerabilities altogether. By focusing on cultural changes, targeting entire classes of vulnerabilities (like XSS and SQL injection), adopting threat modeling, and rethinking patch cycles for third-party dependencies, you can shift from firefighting to building resilient systems. We’ll even explore modern techniques like ephemeral infrastructure and burn-and-replace methodologies to reduce reliance on traditional patching.
Having a resolution to learn DevOps or enhance your skills in your DevOps career is a commendable goal. Networking with other professionals in the field can also provide insights and guidance. Register for #DevOpsDaysAustin to stay updated on the latest trends and best practices.
