Manual process of Secret Management on EKS

Without Kapstan
Managing secrets manually means:
- Tedious manual configuration of secrets in AWS Secrets Manager
- Writing YAML to inject secrets into Kubernetes clusters
- Coordinating with DevOps for access control
- Compliance risks without automated governance

Secret management with Kapstan

Trusted by high growth startups in all stages
“Before Kapstan, managing secrets at Benny was a constant juggling act of manual processes and repetitive checks. Several times, my engineers improperly configured secrets, or forgot to update environment variables, bringing down production. Once we switched to Kapstan, it completely transformed our workflow. The developer UI to input secrets is dead simple. Secrets rotation is now automated, everything integrates cleanly with our existing infrastructure on AWS, and our team has far more confidence managing their own microservices. It’s been a game-changer.”
