Course description
Stop hardcoding API keys and passwords in your code. You'll centralize secret management with HashiCorp Vault and automatically sync credentials into Kubernetes, the same approach used by major banks, healthcare providers, and security-conscious enterprises.
This course shows you how to set up Vault on Kubernetes, configure the External Secrets Operator to bridge Vault and your cluster, and automatically rotate credentials without redeploying applications. You'll organize secrets by environment and completely eliminate sensitive data from Git.
Proper secret management is non-negotiable for production systems. Learn how to handle credentials the way security teams actually require.
