Oct. 28, 2015 Speaker Brett Miller Amazon, Senior Consultant, World Wide Public Sector Professional Services Brett Miller is an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Senior Consultant with the Security and Compliance Practice. Brett has been working closely with commercial, civilian and IC organizations to migrate their applications into the cloud and modernize their security practices using cloud technologies. Before AWS, Brett spent 14 years as a mission developer, network and security engineer and a cloud security SME. Brett spent 3 years with a government enterprise security organization and led the authoring and deployment of the IC shared 800-53 responsibility matrix that has been used to accredit several clouds within the intelligence community. Brett was also the primary security architect and accreditation advisor for several cloud platforms currently deployed within the government.
Simplifying Security Compliance with Cloud Reference Implementations Cloud technology is transforming commercial and government systems by providing costeffective, near limitless scalability, and providing developers rapid and direct access to technology that is helping to transform startups into multi-billion dollar enterprises. Unlike the commercial sector that has been migrating to cloud technologies over the past 8 years, the government is just starting their cloud journey. Most federal, state, and IC organizations are accelerating their cloud migrations so they can obtain the cost savings and scalability that their commercial counterparts have been realizing for the past 6-7 years. This cloud revolution is creating some concern within government compliance and security organizations that have invested significant amounts of time and resources on security processes that may be challenged by the pace of innovation that the cloud empowers. For the first time in IT history, developers can build and deploy cloud based infrastructures within minutes yet cannot go into production for months due to the time and manpower it takes to manually ATO systems. This is a big problem that security professionals need to address so that mission applications can deploy and keep up with our adversaries.
