GitHub Action Secrets aren’t secret anymore: exposed PATs now a direct path into cloud environments
Tags: access, api, authentication, awareness, cloud, credentials, data-breach, detection, exploit, github, infrastructure, malicious, mfa, monitoring, security-incident, strategy, threat, trainingEasily evading detection: Wiz found that a threat actor with basic read permissions via a PAT can use GitHub’s API code search to discover secret names embedded directly in a workflow’s yaml code, accessed via “${{ secrets.SECRET_NAME }}.”The danger is that this secret discovery method is difficult to monitor because search API calls are not…

Racks, sprawl and the myth of redundancy: Why your failover isn’t as safe as you think

They live in routing tables, BGP sessions, cloud control planes and software-defined overlays. Many organizations rush to multi-region cloud setups, believing geographic distance alone guarantees resilience. It does not. Last year, I oversaw a global e-commerce platform with active-passive failover across two…
