You use the Azure Key Vault service to store secrets/config, crypto keys and certificates. Azure Key Vault is part of the Azure cloud offering.

Json web Tokens (JWT) is a JSON based format for passing tokens and access/user information between services, often used as part of OpenID Connect to handle authentication of users in a secure way between systems.
