Use Azure Managed Identities and Azure Key Vault to Protect Your .NET API Secrets!

Use Azure Managed Identities and Azure Key Vault to Protect Your .NET API Secrets
We all know we shouldn't have our app secrets and production connection strings in our app settings file, but sometimes it's an easy trap to fall into. We don't want sensitive information possibly being pushed to the repo or just sitting in the project. All it takes is one mistakes for secrets to be exposed. By harnessing managed identities and azure keyvault you can take everything in your app settings file and throw it into Azure. Allowing you to have a safer .net app and keep a clean app settings file.
