lockbox
Keyed storage box
A lockbox is a secure container with a lock, used to store valuables or restrict access.
Real estate agents use lockboxes to hold house keys for showings.
In finance, a lockbox is a bank service where customer payments go directly to a dedicated address for faster processing.
Figuratively, putting something in a lockbox means protecting it from interference: Politicians promised to put Social Security in a lockbox.
