KCEU Talk Card-Alex-Rejekts Talk

Type 1 Fun with Type 1 Hypervisors

On the fun scale, Type 1 fun is enjoyable as it happens. This is not what most people think of when it comes to hypervisors. In this talk, we'll change that.

The Missing Layer in Cloud Native Engineering

Platform engineering has transformed how we deliver Kubernetes to development teams. We've abstracted away node management, networking complexity, and deployment pipelines. But we've accidentally created an observability gap: the kernel.

Project Lightning Talk

The Technical Advisory Group (TAG) Security and Compliance connects security and compliance experts to CNCF projects to improve security. This talk will provide an overview of the TAG, with a focus on how projects can get involved.

One Bug, Four Forks, and a Disclosure Scavenger Hunt

When we found a parsing vulnerability in tokio-tar, dubbed Tarmageddon, we discovered what happens next. We’ll walk through this vulnerability and how the responsible disclosure ended up sent to four different projects. We’ll look at how this disclosure became a scavenger hunt for maintainer email addresses, popular forks, and dependent projects.

Why Security of Kubernetes Comes Down to Linux Security

Have you ever wondered why so many container escape vulnerabilities stem from vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel? This talk will take you beneath Kubernetes and into the Linux kernel to explore how the underlying kernel impacts your containers. We will look at the history of containers to see how they evolved from Linux containers to today’s cloud native world.

Frequently asked questions

What is Edera?

Edera is a container-native Type-1 hypervisor that eliminates the trade-off between container security and performance. It isolates every workload in its own lightweight “zone,” preventing container escapes by design while maintaining near-native speed and full Kubernetes compatibility.

How does Edera make containers more secure?

Traditional containers share the same Linux kernel, which creates risk of container escapes and lateral movement. Edera replaces that shared foundation with per-container micro-VMs, providing complete workload isolation. This design blocks privilege-escalation attacks and zero-days that exploit the kernel — without needing new tooling or specialized hardware.

Is Edera suitable for AI & GPU workloads?

Absolutely. Edera provides GPU workload isolation that prevents data leakage between tenants and protects against GPU driver vulnerabilities — critical for secure AI training and inference at scale.

Can Edera support confidential or regulated workloads?

Yes. Edera complements confidential computing models by providing strong software-based isolation that doesn’t depend on proprietary hardware. It helps organizations meet zero-trust and compliance requirements for sectors like finance, healthcare, and government.

What kind of companies use Edera?

Edera is built for platform engineering and security teams running large Kubernetes or AI infrastructures. Enterprises adopt it to enable secure multi-tenancy, reduce infrastructure costs, and achieve security without sacrifice — whether on-prem, in public cloud, or at the edge.
