Come join us at DevOps World | Jenkins World 2019 for "Thinking about Jenkins Security", a talk about securing your Jenkins server. We’ll review the layers that secure Jenkins and describe techniques that you can use to protect your Jenkins server.

The secure by default configuration that Jenkins provides

Risks associated with reducing default security settings

Authentication and authorization alternatives

Using "least privilege" principles
