About:
Shush is a command-line utility that leverages AWS Key Management Service (KMS) to encrypt and decrypt secrets. It allows developers to securely store sensitive configuration data like API keys and passwords directly in version control. This simplifies secret management for infrastructure and application deployment without requiring external secret storage services.
Key Features:
  • Uses AWS KMS for secure encryption/decryption
  • Supports YAML and JSON file processing
  • Integrates with environment variables and shell scripts
  • Enables version-controlled secret storage
Use Cases:
  • Encrypting secrets for deployment pipelines
  • Managing API keys in shared codebases
  • Securely passing credentials to cloud infrastructure
Alternatives:
  • sops – SOPS supports multiple KMS providers and PGP, offering broader encryption options than Shush's AWS KMS focus.
  • git-crypt – git-crypt transparently encrypts files in git, whereas Shush encrypts specific values within configuration files.
