## Why Infisical?
Infisical helps developers achieve secure centralized secret management and provides all the tools to easily manage secrets in various environments and infrastructure components. In particular, here are some of the most common points that developers mention after adopting Infisical:
- Streamlined **local development** processes (switching .env files to [Infisical CLI](/cli/commands/run) and removing secrets from developer machines).
- **Best-in-class developer experience** with an easy-to-use [Web Dashboard](/documentation/platform/project).
- Simple secret management inside **[CI/CD pipelines](/integrations/cicd/githubactions)** and staging environments.

**Identities** in Infisical are users or machine which have a certain set of roles and permissions assigned to them. Such identities are able to manage secrets in various **Clients** throughout the entire infrastructure. To do that, identities have to verify themselves through one of the available **Authentication Methods**.
As a result, the 3 main concepts that are important to understand are:
- **[Identities](/documentation/platform/identities/overview)**: users or machines with a set permissions assigned to them.
- **[Clients](/integrations/platforms/kubernetes)**: Infisical-developed tools for managing secrets in various infrastructure components (e.g., [Kubernetes Operator](/integrations/platforms/kubernetes), [Infisical Agent](/integrations/platforms/infisical-agent), [CLI](/cli/usage), [SDKs](/sdks/overview), [API](/api-reference/overview/introduction), [Web Dashboard](/documentation/platform/organization)).
- **[Authentication Methods](/documentation/platform/identities/universal-auth)**: ways for Identities to authenticate inside different clients (e.g., SAML SSO for Web Dashboard, Universal Auth for Infisical Agent, etc.).
