# Secrets

CloudBender supports Mozilla's [SOPS](https://github.com/mozilla/sops) to encrypt values in any config yaml file since version 0.8.1  


If a sops encrypted config file is detected CloudBender will automatically try to decrypt the file during execution.  
All required information to decrypt has to be present in the embedded sops config or set ahead of time via sops supported ENVIRONMENT variables.
