Your app may be secure… but your secrets are exposed
API keys, passwords, tokens…
one leaked secret can compromise your entire system
In this video, we perform a complete real-world Secrets Management practical using Gitleaks and HashiCorp Vault.
This video is part of the AI-Driven DevSecOps Masterclass by The Techzeen.
What you’ll do in this video:
* Install Gitleaks & HashiCorp Vault on Linux
* Create a vulnerable Git repository
* Detect leaked API keys using Gitleaks
* Understand secret fingerprints & scans
* Rotate compromised secrets securely
* Store secrets inside Vault
* Clean insecure code properly
* Configure .gitleaksignore
* Apply Zero Trust policies
* Generate restricted Vault tokens
* Test authorized vs unauthorized access (403 Forbidden demo)
Why this matters:
Most major breaches happen because of leaked credentials
Real DevSecOps engineers secure secrets before attackers exploit them
Outcome:
Industry-grade secrets management workflow
Zero Trust security mindset
Real-world DevSecOps practical experience
