If you know where to look, exposed secrets are easy to find. Secrets are supposed to prevent unauthorized access, but in the wrong hands, they can be—and typically are—exploited in seconds. To give you an idea of the scope of the problem, more than 39 million secrets were leaked across GitHub in 2024 alone.1 Every minute GitHub blocks several secrets with push protection.2 Still, secret leaks remain one of the most common—and preventable—causes of security incidents. As we develop code faster than ever previously imaginable, we’re leaking secrets faster than ever, too. That’s why, at GitHub, we’re working to prevent breaches caused by leaked tokens, credentials, and other…

Many teams begin with static, hardcoded credentials for databases — often buried in config files or environment variables. Getting your secret rotation automated on a fixed schedule (daily, weekly, monthly) is a good first step, but to truly minimize the risks of credential theft as much as possible requires adoption of “dynamic” secrets (sometimes called “ephemeral secrets” or “just-in-time secrets”). By issuing short-lived credentials that expire automatically — often within minutes or hours — organizations can drastically minimize the attack window if a secret becomes compromised. In this follow-up to Why we need short-lived credentials and how to adopt them — a manage…

Static, long-lived credentials or “secrets” (e.g. passwords, API keys, SSH keys) remain one of the most significant security vulnerabilities in modern infrastructures. Rotating these credentials manually is time-consuming and not scalable.

This post will cover: Real-world reasons to adopt dynamic secrets, focusing on cloud native and CI/CD use cases.
