Section 1
The premise
AI can prioritize secret-scan hits and draft revocation steps, but actual rotation must be human-driven.
What AI does well here
- Classify hits by severity (live key vs. test fixture).
- Draft revocation runbooks per provider.
- Generate post-incident summaries with timeline.
What AI cannot do
- Verify a key is truly revoked across providers.
- Know which leaked keys have been used in production.
