Stop The Secrets Getting Out – Sign the Petition
- Long-lived API keys and tokens are one of the biggest overlooked security risks today. When leaked, they give attackers unrestricted access.
- Just look at the recent Moltbook breach, which exposed 1.5 million keys.
- We can fix this. Short-lived, dynamic credentials dramatically reduce secret sprawl and limit attacker access.
