Uber's Multi-Cloud Secrets Management Platform addresses security challenges related to managing over 150,000 secrets in a distributed infrastructure. With over 5,000 microservices and integrations with more than 400 third-party vendors, traditional secrets management methods are inadequate. Uber's strategy combines preventive tools, like a CLI that scans code before commits, preventing sensitive information from entering codebases, and remediation measures such as real-time and scheduled scanning. This approach improves security and operational efficiency by continuously monitoring for exposed secrets and simplifying cloud security models for developers.
Uber's Multi-Cloud Secrets Management Platform manages over 150,000 secrets in a complex infrastructure of over 5,000 microservices, addressing significant security challenges.
The platform implements a dual-pronged strategy combining preventive tools that block secrets from codebases and remediation measures that monitor for exposed secrets.
A CLI tool integrated into the development workflow scans code before commits to ensure sensitive information does not enter version control systems.
Real-time and scheduled scanning capabilities provide immediate feedback to developers and ensure comprehensive security reviews across Uber's entire codebase.
