Sentinel allows Vault Enterprise customers to remedy that by checking that keys with specified names adhere to the desired formats. Additionally, the policies can be restricted to only apply when a secret includes multiple related keys or occurs on specific Vault paths.

(Sentinel policies are not applied to root tokens.)
