I was super excited to be at Kubecon+CloudNativeCon this year. Kubecon has managed to build a great community that goes beyond Kubernetes and has been a good catalyst in bringing together people passionate about OpenSource. Kubecon also has attracted a lot of interest due to the quality of sessions, the number of co-located events, and the opportunity to connect with peers, partners and friends.

This conviction stems, in part, from our company history: LimaCharlie started out as an open-source endpoint detection and response (EDR) project. But beyond that, we think that the future of cybersecurity will be marked by the values of open-source tech; by a trend towards greater openness and transparency.
