Yesterday Hoff and I led a Cloud Security workshop at the Cloud Identity Summit. Hoff talked in a lot of detail about various Cloud architectural models, security problems and the Infrastructure, Metastructure and Infostructure layers.
Today I did a keynote talk on Cloud Security: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow. In the talk I described four essential architectural elements for Cloud security: Gateway (to limit attack surface), Monitor (Build Visibility In), STS (issue, validate, exchange security tokens), and PEP/PDP (dynamically make auth* decisions at runtime)
This is a great conference, not too big not too small. Filled with people with their hands on the wheel solving problems.
