Security Disclaimer

⚠️ Important: While EnvSeal encrypts your secrets, encrypted environment files should still never be committed to version control systems like Git, GitHub, GitLab, or any other remote platform. Even encrypted secrets can pose security risks if exposed publicly.
EnvSeal helps prevent the accidental exposure of secrets by protecting against leaks from screenshots, screen-sharing sessions, or unintentional commits to version control. For production environments, always use proper secret management solutions such as:

• Cloud-native secret managers (AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault, Google Secret Manager)
• Dedicated tools like HashiCorp Vault, Doppler, or Infisical
• CI/CD platform secret stores (GitHub Secrets, GitLab CI/CD variables)
