A. Code repositories Code repositories often contain hardcoded credentials, API keys, or other sensitive information that developers may accidentally commit without proper security measures. This can expose these credentials when the code is shared or made public, leading to unintentional leakage of corporate credentials in cloud environments.

Selected Answer: A
A. Code repositories Explanation: Code repositories (such as GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket) are frequently used for storing and sharing code, but they are often mishandled. Developers sometimes inadvertently upload sensitive information like API keys, passwords, or private credentials into these public or even private repositories. This can lead to accidental exposure, especially if the repository is not properly secured or if access controls are misconfigured.
