Vault Integration (Agent)
Vault integration for AI agents refers to the connection between an agent runtime and a secrets management platform — such as HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or Azure Key Vault — to retrieve credentials dynamically at runtime rather than storing them statically in code or environment variables. Dynamic secret retrieval ensures that agents always use current, least-privileged credentials and that access can be revoked centrally without redeploying agent code.
