Description
section.descriptionEveryone agrees secrets should not leak, but teams need muscle memory for what happens next. This drill starts with a fake exposed token in a repository.
We will find the leak, assess the blast radius, rotate the credential, clean the workflow, and add prevention checks that catch the same mistake earlier.
Attendees leave with a calm response checklist for a problem that usually creates panic.
