Applications frequently need access to sensitive data, such as database credentials, API keys, passwords and tokens.

Of course, we can't just store these secrets in plain text or hard-coded into our applications. Rather, we need to securely protect this sensitive information to ensure that only those with a "need to know" basis can access it.

In this episode of Mobycast, Jon and Chris kick off a two-part series on handling secrets for your cloud-native applications. We discuss various approaches to secrets management, ranging from basic roll-your-own techniques to fully managed solutions. We explore some of the most popular options out there and help you decide which one is best for you.
