Securing secrets and application data is a complex task for globally distributed organizations.
One small mistake can lead to a major breach. Managing secrets for over 60 products across 150,000 hosts and four regions requires a different approach altogether. The company sought to reduce the risk of secret sprawl and data exposure by centralizing and tightly controlling access to secrets and securing data across clouds, applications, and systems based on trusted identities with Vault. By introducing HashiCorp Vault as a single security solution, the company not only improved organizational efficiency and reduced risk of secret sprawl, it reduced costs and overhead associated with managing and supporting different security solutions.
Today, the company is running Vault globally supporting over 800 million monthly transactions. Since the initial proof of concept and rollout, the company has grown Vault adoption 600%, saving the company hundreds of employees hours spent managing thousands of secrets and greatly reducing the operational burden around issuing secrets throughout the company.
