Can a Vault admin access a Safe configured for specific hours outside those hours?

The assertion that access is denied aligns with the principle of enforcing strict control over sensitive data within a Vault. When a Safe is configured with specific hours of access, it establishes a clear boundary meant to safeguard the sensitive information contained within. This restriction generally applies universally, including to Vault admins, ensuring that all access policies are adhered to consistently.

Maintaining such boundaries helps mitigate risks associated with unauthorized access, especially during periods when it is deemed inappropriate for the Safe to be accessed. Therefore, unless specific policies override these hours—such as in the case of emergency access protocols or specific role-based permissions that allow for after-hours access—users, including admins, must adhere to the established time constraints for accessing the Safe.
