Let's face it - we've all been tempted to hardcode credentials in our scripts (admit it, you've done it). But with data breaches making headlines daily, it's time to level up our security game. Join me for a practical look at PowerShell's secret management capabilities that won't have you pulling your hair out.
We'll explore real-world scenarios using PowerShell's SecretManagement module, showing you how to safely handle credentials, API keys, and certificates. Through live demos and war stories, you'll learn how to integrate with popular vaults like Azure Key Vault and HashiCorp, and most importantly, how to avoid common pitfalls that can expose sensitive data.
Perfect for anyone who's ever thought "there must be a better way than storing passwords in plain text." Bring your laptop and your security concerns - let's make secure automation achievable and maybe even fun.
