Zero secrets left behind: Solving secrets sprawl

Secrets sprawl is a persistent security risk for development and IT teams. API keys, SSH keys, and other credentials end up hardcoded in application code, embedded in CI/CD pipelines, or pasted into shared docs and messages. For IT and security teams, each unmanaged credential is a visibility gap that standard audit logs and identity tools don't cover.

This session walks through how 1Password Developer Tools address the problem for developers and IT teams alike. "IT gains: visibility into where secrets exist and who has access, the ability to enforce policy controls that don't block developers, and automated provisioning and deprovisioning. Developers get a secure way to store, share, and provision credentials without slowing down their work.

What you'll learn:

• Why secrets sprawl happens, where secrets most commonly end up, and the visibility gaps that existing tools don't address

• How 1Password Developer Tools give development teams a secure, centralized alternative to ad hoc secrets management

• What IT and development teams each gain: full credential visibility and policy controls for IT, plus faster, more secure workflows for developers
