Security of Sensitive Data: A Company’s Top Priority
Increasing digitalization brings new challenges, especially when it comes to security and compliance.
For companies handling sensitive data - such as banks, financial institutions, insurance and health care companies - it is a top priority to keep tight control over the assets that protect the very core of their business. These digital assets are called secrets and can come in the form of access tokens, passwords, certificates and encryption keys.
Do these Pain Points Sound Familiar to You?
- No audit trail who accessed which secret and when, employees who left the organization know many crucial secrets
- Secrets are not rotated for years and it’s a labour intensive operation
- Passwords written down on Post-IT notes or transfered by mail, chat, etc.
- Requesting certificates for web services takes days, is processed through tickets and expired certificates cause downtimes
- Software that stores its secrets in plain text configuration files
- Missing automation capabilities to manage secrets like the container workload

HashiCorp’s Vault is the central pillar of a solution that strongly mitigates the risk of breached secrets and stolen data, while offering best in class flexibility, developer friendliness and machine to machine automation through APIs.
OpenShift
