The challenge

Paradox, a conversational recruiting software company, ran a large infrastructure migration hampered by a homegrown secrets tool the team described as poorly organized. It needed centralized secrets and configuration management across a fast-growing set of systems and developers.

The solution

Paradox adopted Doppler's Secrets Manager with Kubernetes integration, RBAC, Okta SSO, secret versioning and rollback, audit logs and automated secret rotation to support its move toward a zero-trust model.

The results, in context

According to the case study, Paradox achieved 75% faster Kubernetes adoption and a 50% reduction in time to MVP, while centralizing secrets and configuration across more than 1,000 systems. Secrets management came to occupy only a small fraction of the DevOps team's time.
