This is something I’ve always pondered on myself when it comes to automation as it really does seem that once someone gains access, it really is just a matter of time for the to figure out where credentials are stored.
However, this is possibly already a thing or it’s not because maybe it doesn’t sound like a good idea?? But I was just reminded of how we use MFA, and it dawned on me how these ideas behind automation and how to pull credentials we are always thinking about how we get the credential for the script so it can use it, but what if we had a way for the automation to prompt and ask us for the credential? Because surely your automation should be running on a regular schedule, where you expect these prompts. In turn the idea of an MFA prompt could also be automated?
Not sure if that’s a good idea or I’m just over complicating things.
