Ben de Haan is a freelance security consultant and engineer with specialties in architecting and implementing cloud security and building secure CI/CD environments in Agile, DevOps, and SRE cultures. He believes security should be built in and can be scaled to meet modern ways of working, hosts security training and workshops, and is a regular at AWS Netherlands meetups.
Secrets management fails in surprisingly ordinary ways: credentials land in code, deployment files, containers, and cloud resources, then quietly become part of the system’s attack surface.
