Azure Key Vault

Being very cheap to run overall is one of the most notable features of Azure Key Vault. However with the requirement of you the user adding this onto your azure system. Due to the PowerShell requirement for it to be added as a password security feature. If you have Multi factor authentication on your system it can be co-opted by Azure.
