Synchrony claims it turns secrets into measurable business value by piping Vault audit and operational logs into Splunk and building three live Splunk dashboards (static secret expiry, AppRole secret ID tracker, namespace metadata) that send automated 60/30/20/10‑day alerts and incidents. The system yields zero downtime from forgotten credentials, 80% reduction in compliance toil, ~80% of expiry alerts remediated by developers, and zero AppRole escalations; roadmap includes ServiceNow and PKI secret engine integration.
