In this episode, Ori Mankali, senior VP of
engineering at cloud security startup Akeyless, speaks with SE
Radio's Nikhil Krishna about secrets management and the
innovative use of distributed fragment cryptography (DFC). In the
context of enterprise IT, 'secrets' are crucial for
authentication in providing access to internal applications and
services. Ori describes the unique challenges of managing these
sensitive data, particularly given the complexities of doing so
on a large scale in substantial organizations. They discuss the
necessity for a secure system for managing secrets, highlighting
key features such as access policies, audit capabilities, and
visualization tools. Ori introduces the concept of distributed
fragment cryptography, which boosts security by ensuring that the
entire secret is never known to any single entity. The episode
explores encryption and decryption and the importance of key
rotation, as they consider the challenges and potential solutions
in secrets management.
