Sensitive values should never be stored as plaintext in workflow files, but rather as secrets. [Secrets](/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/creating-and-storing-encrypted-secrets) can be configured at the organization{% if currentVersion == "free-pro-team@latest" or currentVersion ver_gt "[email protected]" or currentVersion == "github-ae@latest" %}, repository, or environment{% else %} or repository{% endif %} level, and allow you to store sensitive information in {% data variables.product.product_name %}.

Secrets use [Libsodium sealed boxes](https://libsodium.gitbook.io/doc/public-key_cryptography/sealed_boxes), so that they are encrypted before reaching {% data variables.product.product_name %}. This occurs when the secret is submitted [using the UI](/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/creating-and-storing-encrypted-secrets#creating-encrypted-secrets-for-a-repository) or through the [REST API](/rest/reference/actions#secrets). This client-side encryption helps the minimize risks related to accidental logging (for example, exception logs and request logs, among others) within {% data variables.product.product_name %}'s infrastructure. Once the secret is uploaded, {% data variables.product.product_name %} is then able to decrypt it so that it can be injected into the workflow runtime.
