What it does

For the leaks serious enough to be incidents, this workflow runs the coordination layer. It declares a PagerDuty incident, assembles the responders in a dedicated Slack channel, and stands up a postmortem document already populated with the detection source, affected service, and timeline so responders coordinate instead of scrambling.

When to use it

Use it for confirmed high-severity exposures, like a production database credential or signing key found in public, where ad-hoc rotation isn't enough and you need a tracked incident with a paper trail.

How it works

  1. 1A webhook receives a confirmed high-severity leak event with the secret type and owning service.
  2. 2The flow gates on severity so only true incidents trigger the full bridge.
  3. 3It declares a PagerDuty incident assigned to the security escalation policy.
  4. 4It opens a dedicated Slack incident channel and posts the initial context and responders.
  5. 5It creates a Confluence postmortem page seeded with the detection time, source, and affected service.
  6. 6It links the incident, channel, and postmortem together and posts the bundle to the security channel.

Set it up
