SECOPS

Exposed Secret Triage and Remediation Agent

An agent investigates a reported secret leak end to end — confirms the credential is live, traces what it unlocks across systems, drafts a rotation plan.

What it does

Acts as a first-responder analyst for a leaked credential. Instead of a fixed pipeline, the agent reasons about what the secret is, whether it's still valid, what it can reach, and what rotation requires — then hands a human a ready-to-execute plan.

When to use it

Use it for ambiguous leaks where the secret type or blast radius isn't obvious and you want investigative judgment, not just a revoke button. Best when an analyst would otherwise spend an hour pivoting across logs and consoles.

How it works

  1. 1A webhook reports a candidate secret with its source context.
  2. 2The agent probes whether the credential is still live and enumerates the resources and accounts it can touch.
  3. 3The agent searches recent activity logs for signs the key was already used by an attacker.
  4. 4It composes a rotation and containment plan ranked by urgency, including downstream services that will break.
  5. 5It opens a PagerDuty incident with the full investigation and plan, then posts a Slack summary for the on-call.

Set it up

What you configure once, before turning it on.

  1. 1
    Connect HTTP webhookTrigger any URL on agent actions.
  2. 2
    Connect DatadogMetrics, traces, log search.
  3. 3
    Connect PagerDutyIncidents, on-call, escalations.
  4. 4
    Connect SlackChannels, DMs, threads, mentions.
  5. 5
    Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
  6. 6
    Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
  7. 7
    Test, then turn it onRun once against a sample, confirm the output, then enable the trigger.
