Week 3 Wrap-up

This week you learned about Dynamic Secrets. You participated in an interactive lab and ran a Vault dev server and moved on to running a Vault production server. You enabled the KV secrets engine and Userpass auth method and used Vault policies to restrict which secrets different users can access.

In another interactive lab, you used the Transit secrets engine with a Python web app and a MySQL database to enable encryption-as-a-service, encrypting and decrypting data stored outside of Vault.

Next steps

Week 4 of your onboarding journey includes learning about operationalizing workloads and secrets as a service.
