Hello dmarquesgn,

Please look into Microsoft.PowerShell.SecretManagement module. 

 

You can use it to store your secrets in Local store, as well as in othe vaults ( Azure Key is supported).

 

Use Register-SecretVault to register your Azure Key vault.

$params = @{
    Name = 'Azure'
    ModuleName = 'Az.KeyVault'
    VaultParameters = @{
        AZKVaultName = 'MyAzureKeyVault'
        SubscriptionId = (Get-AzContext).Subscription.Id
    }
    DefaultVault = $true
}
Register-SecretVault @params

Hope that helps.
