HashiCorp Expands Its Security Ecosystem with Nine New Vault Integrations
HashiCorp, a leader in multi-cloud infrastructure automation software, has announced several new integrations to its Vault platform. Vault is a highly secure secrets management and data protection tool that helps organizations manage and protect sensitive data in multi-cloud environments. These new integrations extend the capabilities of Vault, enhancing its use cases and offering a more comprehensive security solution.
HCP Vault Dedicated
HashiCorp’s HCP Vault Dedicated is a hosted version of Vault Enterprise that is managed by HashiCorp. This service allows organizations to quickly deploy and utilize Vault without the overhead of managing the infrastructure themselves. One of the new integrations for HCP Vault Dedicated comes from Real-Time Innovations (RTI).
Real-Time Innovations (RTI)
Real-Time Innovations, known for its smart-world systems, has integrated its Connext software framework with HashiCorp Vault. This integration allows users to deploy and rotate pre-shared keys using Vault, which is essential for maintaining secure communication within intelligent distributed systems. The lightweight security plugins in Connext now leverage Vault to enhance their security capabilities.
HCP Vault Radar
HCP Vault Radar is another standout product from HashiCorp that automates the detection and identification of unmanaged secrets in code. This tool is crucial for security teams to quickly identify and remediate potential security issues. A new integration from GitHub enhances the functionality of HCP Vault Radar.
GitHub
GitHub, the popular platform for software development and version control, has integrated its GitHub CLI as a CI/CD pipeline scanning source for HCP Vault Radar. This integration enables Radar to scan code repositories and identify secrets that may be exposed, thereby helping developers to secure their codebases more effectively.
Vault Enterprise Integrations
Vault Enterprise has also seen a plethora of new integrations aimed at enhancing its security capabilities. These integrations come from leading technology companies like Dell, Keyrunner, Mindflow, Rubrik, and Veza.
Dell
Dell Technologies has introduced a new integration for its PowerProtect DDOS platform, a high-speed, scalable backup and recovery system. This integration uses Vault’s Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) to manage encryption keys, allowing customers to maintain control over their encryption keys while ensuring data security.
Keyrunner
Keyrunner’s new Vault integration provides a local-first approach tailored for developers. This API client allows users to pull secrets from Vault, streamlining the development and testing lifecycle by managing secrets and environment variables more efficiently.
Mindflow
Mindflow leverages Generative AI (GenAI) to deliver powerful automation for cybersecurity, IT, and cloud teams. Their new integration with Vault Enterprise automates authentication processes and enhances security workflows. This no-code/low-code automation platform now uses Vault to manage credentials more securely.
Rubrik
Rubrik’s new integration with Vault Enterprise focuses on their Cloud Data Management (CDM) platform. This integration uses Vault as an External Key Management System (EKMS) for backup, recovery, and compliance. It allows Rubrik customers to maintain control over their encryption keys and ensure their data is protected at rest.
Veza
Veza provides a unified Access Platform that brings together all identities across systems for sophisticated access management. Their new Vault integration offers out-of-the-box transparency for key use cases like Intelligent Access Monitoring and Non-Human Identity Management (NHI). This integration helps Vault Enterprise customers understand and manage their Vault usage more effectively, communicating risk and compliance requirements back to the business.
Vault Community Edition Integrations
HashiCorp has also announced new integrations for the Vault Community Edition, aimed at providing robust security features to a broader audience.
Fortinet
Fortinet, a leader in cybersecurity solutions, has integrated its FortiSOAR platform with Vault. This integration facilitates automated incident responses by using Vault to secure access to compromised application environments, enabling FortiSOAR to remediate potential threats quickly.
walt.id
walt.id provides tools for digital identity and wallet infrastructure. Their new integration with Vault allows organizations to use Vault’s transit secrets engine to sign and verify credentials securely. This integration ensures that wallet keys remain protected within Vault, enhancing the security of digital identity solutions.
Conclusion
HashiCorp’s approach to identity-based security continues to provide a robust foundation for organizations looking to protect, connect, and inspect their infrastructure, applications, and data in multi-cloud environments. The new Vault integrations with industry leaders like Dell, GitHub, Fortinet, and others extend the platform’s capabilities, making it an even more valuable tool for managing security in complex environments.
