Überblick
SSL/TLS VPN implementing OSI layer 2 or 3 secure network extension
Protected-Tool-Abdeckung
OpenVPN client profiles can embed private keys, static tls-auth/tls-crypt keys, or point auth-user-pass at plaintext username/password files. Automic Vault detects bounded user-level OpenVPN profile secrets, but does not migrate them because VPN profiles are service/client deployment state and may be consumed outside the Homebrew openvpn binary.

Lokaler README-Auszug
Detect-only coverage for user-level OpenVPN client secrets.
OpenVPN profiles can contain private keys or reference plaintext auth-user-pass files. This protected-tool coverage reports those local files without changing VPN profile semantics.
