Secrets with code. No new critical path.
"Dotenvx lets us securely version and deploy secrets along with code, without taking on a new critical path dependency. It just works."
Cofounder / Chief Architect at Watt
For John, managing secrets comes down to two requirements: keep them secure, and keep deployments independent of a new service.
Dotenvx lets Watt store encrypted secrets in the repository, so configuration travels with the application. With the private key in the deployment environment, those secrets are decrypted at runtime without fetching them from a separate service.
Secrets stay in the workflow his team already uses. No new critical path.
John is Cofounder and Chief Architect at Watt and was previously Head of Security DevOps at Zoom.
