Secrets Management and Access Control Workflow
Automate secrets management approvals to protect sensitive credentials and enforce security best practices.

Why automate?
Secrets management involves storing, accessing, and securing API keys, passwords, and encryption keys. Without structured approvals, secrets may be exposed, mismanaged, or used improperly, leading to security breaches. Manually handling secrets access increases the risk of unauthorized exposure, making tracking and auditing access difficult. A structured approval process ensures that sensitive credentials are properly protected and only accessible to authorized users. Cflow helps to automate Secrets Management Approvals, ensuring that credential access and modifications are reviewed, approved, and logged, improving security posture.
