DevOps engineers must handle secrets with care. In this series, we summarize best practices for leveraging secrets with your everyday tools.
There’s always a balancing act when it comes to building and deploying cloud-native applications in environments like Amazon Web Services (AWS). The whole point of moving production to the cloud is that developers can move faster than ever before, innovating and shipping new features on a daily basis. But that same speed can be an organization’s downfall if development outpaces security processes and accidentally exposes secrets or other credentials to potential attackers.
This new feature automates assigning severity levels to each incident, allowing security teams to quickly identify the most critical ones and prioritize their response accordingly.
Welcome to our first ever The State of Secrets Security in SaaS Apps, an in-depth look at what security risks are posed by the data stored in organizations' SaaS applications. As companies have adopted a remote-first approach to work, these solutions have increasingly been used to send and store passwords, secrets, and API keys.
Organizations are unaware of the prevalence of API keys and secrets throughout their systems, and how their users are sharing and using them. Even with security best practices and policies in place, the lack of awareness or compliance, as well as the possibility of human error means that API keys and secrets need protection regardless of where they are stored or shared.
Learn more about the challenges awaiting organizations of hundreds to thousands of developers deploying secrets detection and how we're addressing them with our latest feature releases.
Proper IT secrets management is essential to protecting your organization from cyberthreats, particularly in DevOps environments, where common CI/CD pipeline tools such as Jenkins, Ansible, Github Actions, and Azure DevOps use secrets to access databases, SSH servers, HTTPs services and other highly sensitive systems.
