Vault helps organizations to securely store and access application tokens, passwords and authentication credentials, that collectively are commonly referred to as “secrets” in an information security context. The open-source Vault project was first launched by HashiCorp in May 2015 and the first Vault Enterprise release debuted in September 2016. Armon Dadgar, co-founder and CTO of HashiCorp said that the new Vault 0.8 update improves on the data center replication capabilities that HashiCorp debuted in the Vault 0.7 release in March 2017.
