What Infisical does

Infisical stores secrets per project and environment and delivers them to applications through a CLI, SDKs, a Kubernetes operator and integrations with CI/CD and cloud platforms. It adds secret versioning, rotation, dynamic secrets and an internal PKI.

It can be self-hosted or used as a cloud service. Most of the code is MIT-licensed; enterprise features live in separately licensed directories.
