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 the management console or API to generate secrets, ensuring that they are securely stored in a centralized location that seamlessly integrates with your cloud services and can be accessed by external systems through gRPC or REST APIs. To enhance security, encrypt your secrets with keys from the Yandex Key Management Service, as all stored secrets are maintained in an encrypted state. You have the option to select from pre-defined service roles that offer fine-grained access control to your secrets, allowing you to establish specific permissions for reading or managing both the secrets themselves and their associated metadata. When creating a secret, you can choose a KMS key to securely store sensitive information such as login-password pairs. A secret can encompass various types of confidential data, including but not limited to login-password pairs, server certificate keys, or keys for cloud service accounts. The service also supports multiple versions of each secret, ensuring that all data remains securely stored in an encrypted format. To further ensure availability, all secrets are replicated across three different availability zones, providing robust data redundancy and reliability in case of any failures.
