IdentityServer Key Rotation
The IdentityServer Key Rotation component, built by Rock Solid Knowledge, provides a simple and reliable way to enable automatic signing key generation and rotation for Open.IdentityServer and Duende IdentityServer.
Why Key Rotation?
Key rotation is a critical part of managing a production OpenID Connect (OIDC) system. Regular rotation of signing keys helps minimize the impact of a potential key compromise by ensuring that long-lived tokens cannot be forged using outdated or exposed keys. It also allows you to safely expire and replace credentials without disrupting client applications.
By default, IdentityServer requires signing credentials to be configured explicitly. These must typically be registered in code using the appropriate configuration APIs.

The Key Rotation component automates the generation, storage, protection, and exposure of signing keys, enabling a hands-off, best-practice approach to credential lifecycle management.
