What are the best practices for storing passwords and secrets

What are the best practices for storing passwords and secrets

Hi all! I'm working on a Catalyst application that will make use of some database credentials. I have an AWS background and I would use something like AWS Secrets Manager to keep things like passwords out of my code. I know we don't have anything like that in Catalyst. Does anyone have any best practices for storing credentials in a Catalyst App in as secure a way as possible?
