Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method for deploying an application in an execution environment using a first and second sets of key pairs. The method comprises: creating a sequence of tasks comprising build tasks followed by a deploy task. The tasks are configured to receive a task input for performing the tasks. The task input comprises a contribution input and an output of a task preceding at least one of the build tasks. The contribution input comprises secrets. The output of the build tasks is encrypted with a respective encryption key of the first set of key pairs, wherein the contribution input of a task subsequent to the first task is encrypted with a respective encryption key of the second set of keys. The tasks may be executed in the execution environment using unencrypted content of the task inputs.
