Why manual secret rotation fails

🚨 Long-lived secrets are sitting ducks. Static credentials give attackers unlimited time to find and exploit them.

⏰ Manual rotation is error-prone. Teams forget schedules, miss dependencies, and cause outages during updates.

📊 Compliance requires proof. Auditors need rotation schedules, success logs, and access tracking.

🔄 Rollback complexity. When rotations fail, reverting to working credentials becomes a critical path issue.

Manual rotation problems

❌ Manual Process: Forgotten rotations, service outages, human errors

⚠️ Static Secrets: Years-old API keys, hardcoded credentials, expired certificates

✅ VibeGuard: Automated schedules, zero-downtime updates, full audit trails

Result: 85% reduction in credential-related incidents

Automated secret rotation workflow

Policy-driven rotation with staged rollout and automatic rollback capabilities

Policy Setup

Define rotation schedules, credential types, and rollback policies per service and environment.

Generate New Secret

Create new credentials using provider APIs, maintaining complexity requirements and avoiding reuse.

Staged Deployment

Deploy new secrets to services using blue-green or canary strategies with health checks.

Verify & Cleanup

Verify service health, revoke old credentials, and log the successful rotation event.

Supported secret types

Comprehensive rotation support for all critical credential types

Deployment strategies

Multiple deployment patterns for zero-downtime secret rotation

Blue-Green Secret Rotation

Phase 1: Dual Credential Setup

• Generate new credentials alongside existing ones

• Configure services to accept both old and new

• Validate new credentials work correctly

Phase 2: Switch Traffic

• Switch services to use new credentials

• Monitor service health and error rates

• Keep old credentials active for rollback

Phase 3: Cleanup

• Verify service stability for monitoring period

• Revoke old credentials from all systems

• Update secret management systems

Canary Secret Deployment

Stage 1: Limited Rollout (10%)

• Deploy new secrets to 10% of service instances

• Monitor error rates and performance metrics

• Compare against baseline service health

Stage 2: Expand Rollout (50%)

• Increase to 50% of instances if healthy

• Continue monitoring key metrics

• Automatic rollback if issues detected

Stage 3: Complete Migration (100%)

• Deploy to all remaining instances

• Final monitoring and validation period

• Cleanup old credentials after success

Compliance & audit features

SOC2 Type IIPCI-DSSHIPAAISO 27001

Secret Age Tracking

Monitor credential age against policy requirements and alert on approaching expiration dates.
