Description
Confidant is an open-source service designed for secret management, enabling secure and user-friendly storage and retrieval of sensitive information, developed by the team at Lyft. It addresses the challenge of authentication by leveraging AWS KMS and IAM, which enables IAM roles to create secure tokens that Confidant can validate. Additionally, Confidant oversees KMS grants for your IAM roles, facilitating the generation of tokens for service-to-service authentication and enabling encrypted communication between services. Secrets are stored in an append-only format within DynamoDB, with each revision of a secret linked to a distinct KMS data key, utilizing Fernet symmetric authenticated encryption for security. Furthermore, Confidant features a web interface built with AngularJS, allowing users to efficiently manage their secrets, associate them with services, and track the history of modifications. This comprehensive tool not only enhances security but also simplifies the management of sensitive data across various applications.
Description
An open-source interface that ensures secure authentication, management, and auditing of non-human access across various tools, applications, containers, and cloud environments is essential for robust secrets management. These secrets are vital for accessing applications, critical infrastructure, and other sensitive information. Conjur enhances this security by implementing precise Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to manage secrets tightly. When an application seeks access to a resource, Conjur first authenticates the application, then conducts an authorization assessment based on the established security policy, and subsequently delivers the necessary secret securely. The framework of Conjur is built on the principle of security policy as code, where security directives are documented in .yml files, integrated into source control, and uploaded to the Conjur server. This approach treats security policy with the same importance as other source control elements, fostering increased transparency and collaboration regarding the organization's security standards. Additionally, the ability to version control security policies allows for easier updates and reviews, ultimately enhancing the security posture of the entire organization.
