Environment Secrets Manager

Securely manage secrets and environment variables across environments.

Core Workflow

1. Identify secrets: Classify sensitive data
2. Choose provider: Select secrets manager
3. Configure storage: Encrypted storage
4. Implement access: Secure retrieval
5. Setup rotation: Automatic key rotation
6. Audit access: Monitor usage
