Data protection

Secure your data wherever it lives

Protect sensitive information in transit and at rest — all with the flexibility of a single, powerful platform.

Challenge

Encryption shouldn’t slow you down

Application data should be encrypted, but it’s not always easy. Deploying cryptography and key management infrastructure comes with high costs, complex integrations, and limited compatibility across cloud or datacenter environments.

Solution

Data security as agile as your apps

HashiCorp Vault protects data in transit and at rest by centrally managing encryption keys and automating their lifecycle. It can act as a Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) server or software security module to keep sensitive information secure and compliant.


Benefits

Cut the costs, keep the keys

Centralized control and automated key management mean your workflows stay secure across clouds and on-premises, with less overhead for your team.

  • Reduce riskProtect sensitive data with unified key management and encryption workflows that minimize exposure.
  • Move fasterStreamline security with consistent encryption standards and fast, API-driven setup.
  • Cut costsSkip expensive hardware security modules (HSM) — Vault delivers secure, scalable key management at a fraction of the cost.
