Keynote: Trust No System: The Unsettling Reality of Zero Trust

This keynote challenges the conventional wisdom surrounding trust and software security, asserting that trust is a decision made by the observer rather than an intrinsic property of a system. The talk explores the implications of this reality for developers and businesses, emphasizing the need for continuous vigilance and a culture of "reasoning about trust" in cloud-native environments. It offers actionable strategies for managing trust and redefines "zero trust" as "zero implicit trust."
