The correct service for encrypting application secrets is specifically designed for securely managing and retrieving secrets. By encrypting these secrets before they are used as environment variables, developers ensure that sensitive information like credentials and API keys are not stored in plaintext and that they are managed following security best practices. The other listed services either do not primarily focus on secrets management or lack the necessary capabilities to securely manage environment variables.
