Example Concept: Use a centralized secrets management tool like HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or Azure Key Vault to securely store and manage access to secrets. These tools provide features such as encryption at rest, access control policies, audit logging, and automated secret rotation. Integrate secrets management with your CI/CD pipelines and container orchestration platforms (e.g., Kubernetes) to dynamically inject secrets into applications at runtime, minimizing exposure and reducing the risk of leaks.
