# Custom Secret Backends
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Vault doesn't currently support the creation of custom secret backends.
|
|
|
|
The primary reason is because we want to ensure the core of Vault is
|
|
|
|
secure before attempting any sort of plug-in system. We're interested
|
|
|
|
in supporting custom secret backends, but don't yet have a clear strategy
|
|
|
|
or timeline to do.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the mean time, you can use the
|
|
|
|
[generic backend](/docs/secrets/generic/index.html) to support custom
|
|
|
|
data with custom leases.
