Key rotation
Key rotation replaces a credential, such as an access key, token or secret, so a leaked copy stops working. It is a cloud and identity containment action. It breaks anything that uses the old key, so the platform should know what depends on it before it acts.
Definition
Cloud keys leak through repositories and build systems. Disabling the key first and rotating it after is often safer than rotating alone, because the old key stops working immediately.
Secrets managers and privileged access tools are where rotation actually runs, so a platform's reach into them decides what it can do.
Key rotation in Torq's documentation
Torq's integrations page shows 1Password, Astrix Security and Britive among its first 30 names, tools that hold secrets or machine identities and where a rotation step would run, with no action detail on the page. vendor claim torq.io, read
