The State of Secrets Sprawl 2023
For the third year running, GitGuardian presents its State of Secrets Sprawl report, the most extensive analysis of secrets exposed on GitHub and beyond.
Their team of experts scanned and analyzed 1.027B new commits in 2022 (+20% compared to 2021) to uncover the latest trends and identify the most pressing challenges facing developers today.
The main question they seek to answer each year is, "How many new secrets were exposed on GitHub in the preceding year?" The answer is staggering: their analysis reveals 10 million new secrets occurrences were exposed on GitHub in 2022. That's a 67% increase compared to 2021.
Implementing Automated Secrets Detection for Application Security
Dev & Ops teams from large organizations use thousands of secrets like API keys and other credentials in order to interconnect these components together. As a result, they now have access to more sensitive information than companies can keep track of.
The risk is that these secrets are now spreading everywhere. We call “secrets sprawl” the unwanted distribution of secrets in all the systems developers use. Secrets sprawl is even more difficult to control with growing development teams, sometimes spread over multiple geographies. Not even taking into consideration that developers are under hard pressure due to a growing number of technologies to master and shortened release cycles.
In this whitepaper, GitGuardian looks at the implications of secrets sprawl, and presents solutions for Application Security to further secure the SDLC by implementing automated secrets detection in their DevOps pipeline.

Converting CentOS Linux to Red Hat Enterprise Linux
With the announcement that the CentOS Project will discontinue updates and releases of CentOS Linux® version 8 on Dec. 31, 2021 and of version 7 on June 30, 2024, many organizations began the process of reevaluating their IT environments and started to plan for a migration.
If your organization needs a production-grade operating system to run critical business systems, migrating to a fully supported Red Hat® Enterprise Linux subscription with a predictable life cycle and extensive partner ecosystem is a straight-forward process that results in a deployment with a similar user experience to that of CentOS Linux. Learn more in this overview.

State Of Linux in The Public Cloud
More and more workloads are moving to public clouds. When it comes to hybrid cloud success, consistency is key. When an operating environment is flexible, consistent, resilient, and security-focused, the overall application and user environments inherit that consistency. That consistency starts with Linux®. Read this e-book to learn more about the value of Linux for today's business cloud strategy.

Simplify Cloud Security with Red Hat And AWS
As cloud adoption grows, security continues to be a leading concern for organizations of all sizes. In fact, 79% of organizations cite security as a top cloud challenge. This concern is with good reason—45% of breaches in 2022 occurred in the cloud. To protect your business, you need the same level of security policy and access controls in the cloud that you have on-site in your datacenter.
This overview describes how using Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® as your operating foundation across your datacenter and Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud environments helps you:
- Detect and remediate vulnerabilities at scale with Red Hat Insights.
- Ensure compliance with standards certification and built-in scanning and remediation.
- Streamline security configuration and management with automation.
Download the overview to learn how Red Hat and AWS help create the consistency you need to maintain security and compliance.

5 Surprising Benefits of Moving from Centos Linux to Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Some organizations think that using an unpaid, unsupported operating system is a way to save money. However, Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® has a lower total cost of ownership over time. In this infographic, learn how Red Hat Enterprise Linux can help you reduce costs, streamline migration, gain data insights, and enforce security—all while maintaining your preferred software, hardware, and cloud vendors.

Benefits of Migrating from CentOS Linux to Red Hat Enterprise Linux
The CentOS Project will discontinue updates and releases of CentOS Linux® between 2021 and 2024. As a result, CentOS Linux users must migrate to a new operating system to continue receiving updates, patches, and new features. While implementing a new operating system may seem tedious, it also presents an opportunity to reassess your organization’s needs and choose a platform that will better support your business now and in the future.
A consistent, intelligent operating foundation for modern IT and enterprise hybrid cloud deployments, Red Hat® Enterprise Linux delivers optimal benefits for your organization. Because CentOS Linux is derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux sources, you can continue to use many of the same techniques and elements while gaining more features, tools, support, and value.
Compared to organizations that use unpaid alternatives like CentOS Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Linux users experience:
- 16% lower three-year cost of operations.
- 32% more efficient IT infrastructure teams.
- 35% faster development life cycles.
- 81% less unplanned downtime.
