Preface

If you’re using Azure Pipelines for your application, pipeline runs may fail due to missing secrets and environment variables. Without them, integrations with Quay, JFrog Artifactory, and Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security (ACS) won’t work, breaking security tasks like vulnerability scanning, image signing, and SBOM generation for compliance.

To prevent this, you need to securely store secrets and environment variables in Azure. This guide walks you through the process, ensuring your pipelines run smoothly and securely.
