### Encrypt secrets at rest and in transit
103103

104104
Ensure that your secrets are encrypted both at rest and in transit. Azure Key Vault automatically encrypts secrets at rest using industry-standard encryption algorithms. Additionally, use secure communication protocols like HTTPS to encrypt data in transit between your applications and the key vault. This approach ensures that your secrets remain protected from unauthorized access during storage and transmission.
