The most amazing...
...security feature I implemented was a secure cloud environment that met compliance standards using a secret manager for automatic rotation of key information.
Employment
Experience
- Meeting Security Compliance and Hardening Security of Cloud Environment
Due to an email compromise of access and secret keys, and to meet compliance standards, I implemented Secret Manager for automatic key rotation. This update saved these keys in our secret manager, creating IAM roles and automating rotation using AWS Lambda, significantly increasing security.
