Description: Key rotation is the process of changing cryptographic keys at regular intervals or after certain events to enhance security. This approach is fundamental in information security management as it helps mitigate the risk of security breaches. By changing keys, the time during which a key can be used by an attacker in case it has been exposed is limited. Key rotation is applied in various areas, including data loss prevention, cloud security management, and the implementation of Zero Trust security models. Additionally, it is crucial in identity and access management, as well as in the development of data tokenization solutions. In the context of VPNs, key rotation ensures that connections are secure and that credentials are not reused indefinitely, which could facilitate attacks. This process not only enhances security but also fosters a culture of vigilance and responsibility in managing sensitive data, ensuring that organizations remain proactive in defending against cyber threats.
