Warning- AWS Credentials exposed on Google Play Console










1















I have my app published on PlayStore. I am getting this warning on my Play Console that my AWS Credentials have been exposed and i won't be able upload new apk after 12 November 2018 if the problem persists. I use the credentials for uploading images to Amazon S3. The credentials are hard coded right now.
So i need to know what should be the way to rectify this.
Thanks in advance.

          Amazon have a whole blog post on dealing with this problem, and a page on best practices.



          Essentially you need to revert the old credentials, and use Amazon Cognito to control access.
