Knox Description

Knox is a secret management system. Knox allows you to store and rotate secrets, keys, passwords, and other information. Pinterest has many keys and secrets that can be used to sign cookies, encrypt data, protect our network via TLS, access our AWS machines, communicate with third parties, and many other things. Rotating (or changing) keys can be difficult if they are compromised. This usually involves a deploy and most likely a code change. Pinterest keys/secrets were stored in git repositories. These keys were stored in git repositories and copied all over the company's infrastructure. They were also present on many employees' laptops. It was impossible to audit who had access to the keys and who did not. These problems were solved by Knox. Developers can access/use confidential keys and credentials with ease. Confidentiality of secrets, keys and credentials. In the event of compromise, provide mechanisms for key rotation.
