Key Vault's soft-delete feature enables recovery of deleted vaults and objects like keys, secrets, and certificates. When enabled, marked resources are retained for 90 days, allowing for their recovery, essentially undoing deletion.
Purge protection secures against malicious deletions by enforcing a retention period for soft deleted key vaults, ensuring no one, not even insiders or Microsoft, can purge your key vaults during this period, preventing permanent data loss.
Enable logs, set up alerts, and adhere to retention requirements for improved monitoring and security of Key Vault access, detailing the frequency and identity of users.
