Exposed AWS Secret Access Key To GitHub Can Be a Costly Affair – A Personal Experience

I would like to share an experience which is related to securely storing access keys and billing of AWS cloud account.

6 years back, I have started using AWS Cloud services for one of our project requirements. It was an excitement to start working on the cloud. We started exploring and using different services. For one of the use case, we need to store some documents which should be secure, easily managed, and will be growing as the project feature will grow. We opted for AWS Simple Storage Service.
