Really useful and practical guide! API key management is something that can easily be overlooked, but proper handling of secrets is important for keeping applications and APIs secure. The OWASP-based best practices make this a helpful read for developers working with APIs. 👍
Really practical and easy to follow. The point about API key security being more about proper lifecycle management than just protecting the key itself stood out to me. Good reminder that rotation, ownership, monitoring, and quick revocation all matter in real-world applications.

Great breakdown. We recently discovered keys that had not been rotated in years—a breach waiting to happen. The OWASP alignment adds real credibility, and the vault storage advice is spot on. Sharing this with our DevOps team immediately. Thanks for making a complex topic digestible and actionable.
