+    Yaml config files are interesting, because they don't necessarily conform
+    to our basic regex for detecting HighEntropyStrings as strings don't
+    need to be quoted.
+
+    This causes interesting issues, because our regex won't catch non-quoted
+    strings, and if we ignore the quoting requirement, then we increase our
+    false positive rate, because any long string would have high entropy.
+
+    Therefore, we take a different approach: intercept the parsing of the yaml
+    file to identify string values. This assumes:
+
+        1. Secrets are strings
+        2. Secrets are not keys
+
+    Then, we calculate the entropy of those string values.
+
+    The difficulty comes from determining the line number which these values
+    come from. To do this, we transform the string into a dictionary of
+    meta-tags, in the following format:
+
+    >>> {
+        'key': {
+            '__value__': value,
+            '__line__': <line_number>,

+
+    This way, we can quickly identify the line number for auditing at a later
