Vault PKI
Welcome to the Vault PKI (Ember) Engine! Below is an overview of PKI and resources for how to get started working within this engine.
About PKI
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a system of processes, technologies, and policies that allows you to encrypt and sign data. (source: digicert.com)
The Vault PKI Secrets Engine allows security engineers to create a chain of PKI certificates much easier than they would with traditional workflows.
About the UI engine
If you couldn't tell from the documentation above, PKI is complex. As such, the data doesn't map cleanly to a CRUD model and so the first thing you might notice is that the models and adapters for PKI (which live in the main app, not the engine) have some custom logic that differentiate it from most other secret engines. Below are the model
pki/key
TBD
pki/role
TBD
pki/issuer
TBD
pki/certificate/*
TBD
pki/action
TBD
