Introduction

TF Platform’s secrets management feature is natively integrated with its Identity as a Service (IDaaS) capabilities, enabling developers to centralize application configurations and manage sensitive information, such as API keys, database credentials, and internal PKI.

Key Features of Secrets Management in TF Platform

  1. Centralized Storage Securely store all your secrets in a centralized location, minimizing leak risks and ensuring only authorized users can access sensitive information.

  2. Encryption at Rest and in Transit Protect all secrets with encryption at rest and during transmission, safeguarding them against unauthorized access and ensuring compliance with security standards.

  3. Granular Access Control Implement fine-grained access policies to dictate who can access specific secrets, adhering to the principle of least privilege and granting access only as necessary.

  4. Automated Secret Rotation Regularly update secrets automatically, reducing the risk of using stale or compromised credentials without manual intervention.

  5. Audit Logging Maintain a comprehensive audit trail of all secret access and changes, allowing you to track who accessed which secrets and when, facilitating compliance and security audits.

  6. Integration with CI/CD Pipelines Seamlessly integrate secrets management into your CI/CD workflows, enabling applications to retrieve secrets during deployment and preventing hardcoding or exposure securely.

  7. Dynamic Secrets Generate temporary dynamic secrets on the fly, reducing the risk of credential leakage. These secrets can be automatically set to expire after a defined period.

  8. Secure Sharing Share secrets securely among team members and applications using protected channels, ensuring sensitive information remains safeguarded from unnecessary exposure.
