Zero Secrets Left Behind: Short-Lived AWS Credentials with Terraform & Vault

​A leaked credential can put your entire cloud environment at risk. Even when secrets are stored carefully, long-lived credentials can introduce unnecessary security risks.

​Join HashiCorp User Group Accra (HUG Accra) for a practical session exploring how Terraform, HashiCorp Vault, and AWS IAM work together to improve secrets management and enable the use of short-lived credentials.

​What we'll explore

• ​The risks of long-lived AWS credentials

• ​How HashiCorp Vault supports secrets management

• ​How Terraform and AWS IAM fit into a more secure credential workflow

• ​Practical approaches to reducing credential exposure

​Who should attend?

​AWS users, Terraform practitioners, DevOps engineers, cloud engineers, security professionals, and anyone looking to strengthen their cloud security practices.

​Whether you're just starting with Terraform or already managing AWS infrastructure, come ready to learn, ask questions, and connect with the community.
