    <p>
      <strong>HashiCorp Vault</strong> 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.

      <h3 class="feature-header">Secret Storage</h3>
      <p>
        Vault can store your existing secrets, or it can
        dynamically generate new secrets to control access to
        third-party resources or provide time-limited credentials
        for your infrastructure. All data that Vault stores is
        encrypted. Any dynamically-generated secrets are associated
        with leases, and Vault will automatically revoke these
        secrets after the lease period ends. Access control
        policies provide strict control over who can access what
        secrets.

      <h3 class="feature-header">Key Rolling</h3>
      <p>
        Secrets you store within Vault can be updated at any time.
        If using Vault's encryption-as-a-service functionality, the
        keys used can be rolled to a new key version at any time,
        while retaining the ability to decrypt values encrypted
        with past key versions. For dynamically-generated secrets,
        configurable maximum lease lifetimes ensure that key
        rolling is easy to enforce.

      <h3 class="feature-header">Audit Logs</h3>
      <p>
        Vault stores a detailed audit log of all authenticated
        client interaction: authentication, token creation, secret
        access, secret revocation, and more. Audit logs can be sent
        to multiple backends to ensure redundant copies. Paired
        with Vault's strict leasing policies, operators can easily
        trace the lifetime and origin of any secret.
