Protect Secrets with Lockbox

Features in this chapter

  1. Lockbox

At a glance

Keep credentials separate

What it does

Lockbox protects sensitive account information separately from your personal record.

How it works

Nova can refer to a connected credential without placing the secret itself in a Vault item, report, web page or conversation. Authorized access is limited by purpose; connections can be reviewed and withdrawn.

How to use it

Review connected access, authorize a bounded use and refresh a connection when reauthentication is required.

What you control

You choose which supported connections may use a credential reference and can withdraw a granted connection. If access fails, you can decide whether to reconnect; secrets are not copied into ordinary records.

Example

Reconnect a fictional calendar integration without revealing its password.

What it is not

Lockbox is not the Vault, a general document folder or a way to share passwords between members.
