These credentials are stored in GX Cloud and securely encrypted at rest and in transit. When Data Source credentials have been directly provided, they can be used to connect to a Data Source in any GX Cloud deployment pattern. 2. **Environment variable substitution**: To enhance security, you can use environment variables to manage sensitive connection parameters or strings. For example, instead of directly including your database password in configuration settings, you can use a variable reference like `${MY_DATABASE_PASSWORD}`. When using environment variable substitution, your password is not stored or transmitted to GX Cloud.
