The Why

How prepared do Financial Services Institutions (FSIs) feel regarding cloud native threat detection and response? 

As part of its continuous effort to identify and address challenges across its member base, the Fintech Open Source Foundation (FINOS) and Silver member ControlPlane decided to focus on cloud native incident response readiness and address that question pragmatically and engagingly.

On June 26th we successfully hosted our annual Open Source in Finance Forum (OSFF) in London at the Park Plaza, Westminister. With nearly 600 participants, this event marked our largest event in the UK yet. A special thanks to our sponsors: FinOps Foundation, Hedera, and GitLab, as well as our community, digital, and partner sponsors; Canonical, ControlPlane, Syntasso, turntabl, GResearch, NatWest Group, Scott Logic and Red Hat. 

We will share the recordings of the sessions in the upcoming days. In the meantime, here are some of the highlights:
