Secrets Management: Environments and Blast Radius
In this video, we break down why organizing secrets matters and how to think about structure before you start clicking around in the Infisical dashboard. We cover the three things that break down with secret sprawl — blast radius, overly broad access, and lost visibility — and then walk through the building blocks Infisical gives you to solve them: environments and folders. We also look at common folder patterns teams use (per microservice, per app, shared config) and how to decide what's right for your setup.
