Check Text ( C-39068r627672_chk )
Interview the system administrator to identify the key rotation process. Determine if there is a key rotation record and if the keys are rotated at a pre-defined frequency.

If the swarm manager auto-lock key is not rotated on a regular basis, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-39031r627673_fix)
Run the below command to rotate the keys.

docker swarm unlock-key --rotate

Additionally, to facilitate audit for this recommendation, maintain key rotation records and ensure that a pre-defined frequency for key rotation is established.
