Automating policy checks for infrastructure as code prior to deployment is becoming a critical part of the DevSecOps toolkit. Open Policy Agent (OPA) is an open-source policy-as-code standard that's easy to use and incredibly flexible for a wide variety of use cases.
In this talk, Josh Stella (cofounder and CTO at Fugue) will show how cloud engineers can leverage OPA to move fast and ensure cloud infrastructure compliance. He'll cover:
Understanding OPA and getting started with policy-as-code for cloud infrastructure
Checking Terraform for policy violations using Regula, an OPA-based open-source tool
Integrating cloud security into CI/CD to prevent deployment misconfiguration
