Description: secrets and privileged access management, encryption as a
service
Vault secures, stores, and tightly controls access to tokens, passwords,
certificates, API keys, and other secrets in modern computing. Vault
handles leasing, key revocation, key rolling, and auditing. Through a
unified API, users can access an encrypted Key/Value store and network
encryption-as-a-service, or generate AWS IAM/STS credentials, SQL/NoSQL
databases, X.509 certificates, SSH credentials, and more.
.
The key features of Vault are:
* Secure Secret Storage: Arbitrary key/value secrets can be stored in
Vault. Vault encrypts these secrets prior to writing them to persistent
storage, so gaining access to the raw storage isn't enough to access
your secrets. Vault can write to disk, Consul, and more.
.
* Dynamic Secrets: Vault can generate secrets on-demand for some systems,
such as AWS or SQL databases. For example, when an application needs to
access an S3 bucket, it asks Vault for credentials, and Vault will
generate an AWS keypair with valid permissions on demand. After
creating these dynamic secrets, Vault will also automatically revoke
them after the lease is up.
.
* Data Encryption: Vault can encrypt and decrypt data without storing it.
This allows security teams to define encryption parameters and
developers to store encrypted data in a location such as SQL without
having to design their own encryption methods.
.
* Leasing and Renewal: All secrets in Vault have a lease associated with
it. At the end of the lease, Vault will automatically revoke that
secret. Clients are able to renew leases via built-in renew APIs.
.
* Revocation: Vault has built-in support for secret revocation. Vault can
revoke not only single secrets, but a tree of secrets, for example all
secrets read by a specific user, or all secrets of a particular type.
Revocation assists in key rolling as well as locking down systems in
the case of an intrusion.
