About

Confidant is a open source secret management service that provides user-friendly storage and access to secrets in a secure way, from the developers at Lyft. Confidant solves the authentication chicken and egg problem by using AWS KMS and IAM to allow IAM roles to generate secure authentication tokens that can be verified by Confidant. Confidant also manages KMS grants for your IAM roles, which allows the IAM roles to generate tokens that can be used for service-to-service authentication, or to pass encrypted messages between services. Confidant stores secrets in an append-only way in DynamoDB, generating a unique KMS data key for every revision of every secret, using Fernet symmetric authenticated cryptography. Confidant provides an AngularJS web interface that allows end-users to easily manage secrets, the mappings of secrets to services and the history of changes.

About

cryptography includes both high-level recipes and low-level interfaces to common cryptographic algorithms such as symmetric ciphers, message digests, and key derivation functions. Encrypt with cryptography’s high-level symmetric encryption recipe. cryptography is broadly divided into two levels. One with safe cryptographic recipes that require little to no configuration choices. These are safe and easy to use and don’t require developers to make many decisions. The other level is low-level cryptographic primitives. These are often dangerous and can be used incorrectly. They require making decisions and having an in-depth knowledge of the cryptographic concepts at work. Because of the potential danger in working at this level, this is referred to as the “hazardous materials” or “hazmat” layer. These live in the cryptography.hazmat package, and their documentation will always contain an admonition at the top.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Great training and helpful instructions on how to get started with clear step by step u=instructions as well as tutorial videos to help along the way. Great software from what I can see just visiting a couple times since becoming a member who is currently enrolled in a University taking Cyber-Security.

Cons

  • Not really any that I can honestly think of everything is very informative.
