Automated Key Rotation Workflow in Azure Key Vault
Process Flow
A horizontal process flow showing how Azure Key Vault automatically rotates a cryptographic key: a rotation policy triggers creation of a new key version, Azure Event Grid emits KeyRotationInitiated and KeyRotated events to handlers, and Azure Policy with diagnostic logs verifies compliance.

Event Integration
Integrating rotation events with Azure Event Grid or Azure Monitor provides real-time notifications and alerts for every key lifecycle event. Key Vault emits events such as KeyRotationInitiated and KeyRotated, which can be routed to Azure Functions for custom processing, Logic Apps for automated workflows, or security information and event management (SIEM) tools for centralized monitoring. This integration ensures that security teams are immediately aware of key rotations and can verify that processes run smoothly.
