Hi everyone, I was perusing through Conjur and Vault documentation, since I’m starting to think that learning a secret-management system might be a worthwhile investment with the app secrets and SSH keys and CA certificates around.
I was wondering, what do you use in your network? I plan to take a look at Teleport’s documentation too, was curious about what the community uses at home.
Thanks!
We do use GPG keys that are essentially signed by one of our admin keys which is set to fully trusted on the client machines so that keys it signs are trusted with just the one signature. The keys themselves are generated with revocation certificates for those admin keys and a limited lifetime as well by our helper script. The signed keys are stored in the pass repository in a separate folder and the helper script has an idempotent import command which also checks a few other settings and common issues and generates missing revocation certificates after an admin key is replaced. Any automated changes in the repository itself (such as updating the .gpgid files in project directories to include all project members and reencryption afterwards) are made by our puppet master.
It certainly isn’t perfect but it works well enough.
