Could/does Linode provide a secure vault !??

Could/does Linode provide a secure vault for environment variables? I could not find any "best practice" approach to save secure keys/passwords and access them through an instance running an app.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

No.

You would have to implement this yourself or use a third-party app/service. redis for example: https://redis.io/topics/security

If you don't like in-memory things, you could use encrypted SQLite to store the stuff in a simple key-value table on disc.
