"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."
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.
