🚨 Railway Security Breach: Customer secrets may be exposed.
Railway disclosed a security incident involving its internal systems for storing environment variables. An unauthorized third party may have accessed encrypted variables and potentially decrypted values.

🔎 Technical breakdown:
• Envelope encryption & Google Cloud KMS
• Potential exposure of OpenAI and Anthropic API keys
• Credential rotation challenges while deployments are paused
• Multi-tenant isolation and cloud secret management risks
