{"product_id":"secrets-in-the-browser-hemanth-gorijala-9798190281941","title":"Secrets in the Browser: Detecting and Remediating Client-Side Credential Exposure","description":"Modern security programs scan repositories, pull requests, and pipelines for secrets. Those controls are necessary, but they answer only one question: is the source clean. They do not prove what the deployed application actually serves to a browser after it is built, configured, and running. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSingle-page applications, cloud-backed front ends, API gateways, runtime configuration, and source maps create paths where a credential appears only after source review. A build step can inline a secret into a JavaScript bundle. A runtime endpoint can serve it live. A source map can reveal it. In each case the repository is clean and the served application is not. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSecrets in the Browser is a practitioner field guide to that gap. You will learn the five structural paths that deliver credentials to clients; why DAST scanners crawl the right files but do not classify credential-grade values inside JavaScript, JSON, XML, source maps, and API responses; how to inspect live traffic and classify public identifiers versus credential-grade values; step-by-step remediation using PKCE, the backend-for-frontend pattern, API gateways, managed identity, vaults, and CI\/CD release gates; and how to scan source, build artifacts, and runtime. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWritten for application-security engineers, penetration testers, DevSecOps and platform engineers, frontend and full-stack developers, and the engineering leaders who set release standards. All examples are synthetic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hemanth Gorijala\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798190281941\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/02\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 340\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.71d","brand":"Hemanth Gorijala","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50666071818495,"sku":"9798190281941","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_edff41cd-fc4d-4c32-9edb-0274965672f1.jpg?v=1792015470","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/secrets-in-the-browser-hemanth-gorijala-9798190281941","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
