Key Vault

Introduction

Key vault is a cloud storage service that stores secure data such as certificates, keys, and secrets in order to reduce the chances of security information being accidentally leaked.

In Turbo360, Key Vault offers secret management to safely store and tightly limit access to the secrets. It does this by monitoring them using the available metrics and notifying the user when the Secrets in the Key Vault are about to expire.

The following pre-built Dashboard elements are available to users and can be customized to suit their specific requirements.
