    Maybe a not-so-well-known solution. But you could consider using SSH certificates instead?

    Instead of thinking in keys, you should be thinking about identities. A certificate represents a user and the servers know what that user should have access to.

    Maybe it is too much for your usecase, but SSH certificate authentication tends to solve a LOT of problems.

    Investigating, documenting and testing the enterprise-scale deployments of each defender for cloud plan in Azure. Including how to set up supporting identities, agents, policies and logs from the various resources to allow security analysts to properly respond to any alerts the defenders generate.

    It's all fun and games as long as you can use the one-size-fits-all autodeployments, but things get really obscure and not-documented as soon as you require more control over what is happening

    Oh, and putting all of this in reuseable Terraform modules for good measure of course!

    I threw in my own $5 a month yesterday via github. I used to pay more than that to use their private repos, which became free a couple years ago. If that was worth it, this site sure as hell is worth it so much more. Thank you @deimos and all others for your amazing contributions.
