💼 1.12 Ensure API Keys Only Exist for Active Services - Level 2 (Automated)

  • Contextual name: 💼 1.12 Ensure API Keys Only Exist for Active Services - Level 2 (Automated)
  • ID: /frameworks/cis-gcp-v3.0.0/01/12
  • Located in: 💼 1 Identity and Access Management

Description​

API Keys should only be used for services in cases where other authentication methods are unavailable. Unused keys with their permissions in tact may still exist within a project. Keys are insecure because they can be viewed publicly, such as from within a browser, or they can be accessed on a device where the key resides. It is recommended to use standard authentication flow instead.
