# Anypoint Security Overview

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

Anypoint Security for Anypoint Runtime Fabric provides a layered approach to secure your application
network. These layers work together to protect both the application network and the network’s
individual nodes by controlling access to APIs, enforcing policies, and proxying all inbound or
outbound traffic to mitigate external threats and attacks. Anypoint Security also provides you with
a dedicated endpoint to detect attacks and validate traffic without taxing your network
implementations.

> [!NOTE] Anypoint Security requires a separate license. Contact your MuleSoft account
> representative for more information.

## Secrets Manager

Anypoint Security provides a secure vault for you to store the TLS certificates and keystores used
by your deployments.

Through Secrets Manager, you can store the necessary secrets to set up the TLS context that encrypts
inbound traffic to your Runtime Fabric.
