Skill UI

A comprehensive guide for managing secrets and environment variables throughout the entire development lifecycle, from local development to production. This skill covers secret leak auditing (detecting committed credentials), implementing robust rotation workflows, and integrating with industry-leading secret stores like HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, and Azure Key Vault. Essential for hardening CI/CD pipelines and ensuring compliance.

This comprehensive guide details the end-to-end deployment of Delinea Secret Server for robust Privileged Access Management (PAM). It provides scripts and steps for configuring the vault infrastructure, defining secret templates, and automating the discovery of privileged credentials across hybrid environments. Essential for organizations needing centralized, compliant, and automatically rotated management of shared and service accounts.

This guide details how to implement HashiCorp Vault's dynamic secrets engine. It automates the generation, lease management, and rotation of short-lived credentials for databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL), AWS IAM, and PKI certificates. This method eliminates the use of static, hardcoded secrets, enforcing zero-trust principles and meeting stringent compliance mandates like PCI-DSS.

This skill details the deployment of Privileged Access Management (PAM) for critical database systems, including Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and MySQL. It covers essential security controls such as session proxy configuration, credential vaulting, query auditing, and enforcing least-privilege access, helping organizations meet stringent compliance and security standards.

HashiCorp Boundary is an identity-aware proxy that establishes secure, zero-trust access to infrastructure resources, eliminating the need for traditional VPNs. It enforces a default-deny model and integrates with HashiCorp Vault to dynamically broker credentials. This ensures just-in-time, least-privilege access, automatic credential revocation, and comprehensive session recording for strict compliance and auditing.

LaZagne is an open-source post-exploitation tool utilized by red teams to harvest stored credentials from compromised endpoints. It supports Windows, Linux, and macOS, extracting passwords from browsers (Chrome, Edge), databases (MySQL, SQLite), system vaults (DPAPI, LSA), and various applications. It is crucial for privilege escalation and lateral movement during authorized security assessments.

Manages production-grade secret infrastructure, covering Vault clusters, cloud secret stores, auth methods, rotation, and audit patterns to harden DevOps pipelines and respond to leaks.

This guide outlines best practices for configuring and securing Adobe API access across Development, Staging, and Production environments. It details the use of separate Developer Console projects, implementing least-privilege OAuth scopes, and integrating robust secret management solutions (GCP Secret Manager, AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault) into CI/CD pipelines for secure, scalable deployments.

This guide provides a comprehensive strategy for configuring Klaviyo across development, staging, and production environments. It covers best practices for using separate API keys, implementing robust environment detection logic (like reading NODE_ENV), and utilizing secret management solutions (AWS/GCP/Vault). Crucially, it teaches how to implement 'guards' to prevent accidental real-world actions, such as sending live emails or deleting data, in non-production environments, ensuring data integrity and smooth CI/CD deployment.

A comprehensive methodology for offensive security, detailing how to systematically extract secrets from Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines. Techniques covered include dumping environment variables, exploiting misconfigurations in HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, and cloud platform tokens (GitHub, GitLab, etc.). It also guides attackers on OIDC federation abuse, build log analysis, and advanced exfiltration methods, mapping to MITRE ATT&CK T1552.
