Some lessons hit harder when it’s your code on the line.

🧑‍💻 Secure coding
🔐 Secrets management
🕵️‍♂️ Pen testing

These aren’t just best practices. They’re your first line of defense.

Why we need short-lived credentials and how to adopt them Go from static credentials, to auto-rotation, to fully ephemeral “dynamic” credentials with two example roadmaps and see why short-lived credentials are so important.

The shorter the life of every secret in your organization, the more secure you’ll be. 🔒

Here’s the evidence and the framework you need to get buy-in and get started with dynamic secrets. bit.ly/3DTifV3

Preventative beats reactive: Modern risk management for infrastructure vulnerabilities Vulnerability scanning is a last line of defense. Your first line should be preventative risk management strategies that shift security left and narrow the window for exploits.

🚫 Scanning ≠ securing.

Modern risk management starts before vulnerabilities make it to production. Learn how a preventative approach—using HCP Terraform and HCP Packer—can help you secure your infrastructure from the start. bit.ly/4iE004V
