True or False: When encrypting data with the transit secrets engine, Vault always stores the ciphertext in a dedicated KV store along with the associated encryption key.
A . False
B . True
Answer: A
Explanation:
Vault doesn’t store the data sent to the secrets engine.
The transit secrets engine handles cryptographic functions on data-in-transit. It can also be viewed as "cryptography as a service" or "encryption as a service". The transit secrets engine can also sign and verify data; generate hashes and HMACs of data; and act as a source of random bytes.
