HashiCorp Vault is a secure way to control access to tokens, passwords, certificates, encryption keys for protecting secrets and other sensitive data using a UI, CLI, or HTTP API. Adding the AWS Secrets Engine authentication method allows you to generate AWS access credentials dynamically based on IAM policies. This eliminates the need for access key & secret access key management and rotation as all keys are dynamically generated and have a lease time!
