Azure Key Vault

Azure Key Vault is a cloud service designed to securely manage and protect sensitive information such as cryptographic keys, secrets, and certificates. By centralizing the storage and management of these critical assets, Key Vault helps ensure that they are securely handled and access is controlled. Key Vault provides features such as secure key management, encryption of data in transit and at rest, and access policies to define who can access specific secrets and keys. It integrates seamlessly with other Azure services and supports operations like key rotation, secret versioning, and certificate management, thus simplifying compliance and security management for applications. By leveraging Azure Key Vault, organizations can safeguard their cryptographic materials and sensitive data, reducing the risk of exposure and unauthorized access.
