Secrets Management

This walks you through setting up proper secrets management using HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or Kubernetes Secrets. You get configuration examples for Vault with Raft storage and TLS, plus guides covering Kubernetes integration and rotation workflows. Use this when you need to stop hardcoding database credentials and API keys, or when you're trying to get audit logging and automated rotation working across multiple environments. The best practices section is solid on the basics like separating secrets per environment and not logging secret values, though you'll still need to figure out your organization's specific rotation policies and access patterns yourself.
