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
Utilize encryption keys to safeguard your secrets, personal details, and sensitive information stored in the cloud. You can create and remove keys, configure access policies, and execute key rotation through the management console, CLI, or API. Yandex KMS supports both symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic methods. With the REST or RPC API, you can encrypt and decrypt small data sets, including secrets and local encryption keys, in addition to signing data through electronic signature protocols. You have control over who can access the encrypted information, while Yandex KMS guarantees the security and durability of the keys. Additionally, Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) are provided for enhanced security. For small data encryption, you can use the SDKs available in Java or Go, while larger data sets can be encrypted using popular libraries like the AWS Encryption SDK and Google Tink. The service integrates seamlessly with Yandex Lockbox, allowing you to encrypt secrets with your own keys. Furthermore, encryption keys can also be employed to secure secrets and data within the Managed Service for Kubernetes, providing robust protection across various platforms. This comprehensive approach ensures that your sensitive information remains secure from unauthorized access.
