Bootstrapping Secure Mesos Clusters - Vishnu Mohan, Adam Bordelon, Vinod Kone & Jorg Schad, Mesosphere (limited spots, pre-registration suggested)

Apache Mesos offers a range of features that allow you to secure your cluster and prevent breaches and other attacks. This talk will provide an overview of the security features and recommendations for hardening your Mesos cluster. 

The goals of for this talk are to depict how to: 
1. Isolate the cluster perimeter with strong authentication and authorization across all interfaces. 
2. Secure and protect the internal cluster communication, containers, and sandboxes. 
3. Enhance cluster security with support for 3rd party security integrations. 

Topics to cover include: 
1. Security Zones 
2. Security Modes 
3. User and Framework/Service Authentication 
4. User and Framework/Service Authorization 
5. TLS Encryption 
6. Namespaces
