How to Keep Your Playbooks Secure Using Ansible Vault

Ansible Vault is a native mechanism in Ansible that allows users to encrypt sensitive information such as API keys, passwords, and other credentials to protect them at rest. It provides secure, low-effort options for managing sensitive data by leveraging encryption. Encrypted content can be stored in playbooks, variable files, and roles, persisted under source control, and shared without exposure risks. Ansible Vault protects your sensitive content only at rest, and users are responsible for not exposing decrypted content in the console or any other way.
