Developers frequently need to share secrets with team members, contractors, or other third parties, which can be risky due to potential leaks or misuse. Infisical offers a secure solution for sharing secrets over the internet in a time and view-count bound manner. It is possible to share secrets without signing up via share.infisical.com or via Infisical Dashboard (which has more advanced functionality).
