Enterprise](https://www.hashicorp.com/vault.html) that takes advantage of HSMs

to provide three pieces of special functionality:
* Master Key Wrapping: Vault protects its master key by transiting it through
the HSM for encryption rather than splitting into key shares
* Automatic Unsealing: Vault stores its encrypted master key in storage,
* Automatic Unsealing: Vault stores its HSM-wrapped master key in storage,
allowing for automatic unsealing
* [Seal Wrapping](/docs/enterprise/sealwrap/index.html) to provide FIPS
KeyStorage-conforming functionality for Critical Security Parameters
HSM support is currently limited to devices that support PKCS#11 interfaces and

HSM platforms/vendors:
HSM support is available for devices that support PKCS#11 version 2.20+
interfaces and provide integration libraries, and is currently available for
linux/amd64 platforms only. It has successfully been tested against many
different vendor HSMs; HSMs that provide only subsets of the full PKCS#11
specification can usually be supported but it depends on available
cryptographic mechanisms.
