Securing and Controlling Kafka Access

Tuesday Nov 19 / 05:05PM PST, Pacific LM

Abstract

In this talk, Dorian Blanc, Lead Solution Engineer at Gravitee.io, will dive into securing Kafka by exploring various access control mechanisms. Learn how to manage Kafka security through authentication and authorization techniques like OAuth and TLS to control who can access Kafka clusters. 

The session will also cover self-service practices, enabling teams to manage their own Kafka topics securely. Additionally, rate limiting and other governance strategies will be discussed to ensure performance and prevent overuse of Kafka resources, giving businesses control over how Kafka topics are accessed and by whom. Whether you're a Kafka administrator or developer, this talk will provide essential strategies for securing and governing your Kafka infrastructure.
