Project by Netflix’s Cloud Infrastructure Security team ( Alex Bainbridge , Mike Grima , Nick Siow) Cloud security is a hard problem, but an even harder one is cloud security at scale. We knew that given our scale, we needed to rely heavily on automations and that we needed to build our solutions using battle tested scalable infrastructure.
