 ## Keeping Secrets Out of .tf Files
 
 In Terraform, `.tf` files contain the declarative code used to create, manage, and destroy infrastructure. This code is often committed to a version control system like Git, using a platform like GitHub, and shared within a team. Because it is easy for this information to become public-facing, it is important that you make sure your committed code is free of secrets.
