📖What it means
The one place credentials are kept, so that revoking or rotating a secret is a single act rather than a search. A secret outside the vault cannot be rotated, only discovered.
⚖️What it is NOT
The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.
Not: Registry
The vault holds secrets; the registry holds the estate's records.
Not: Credential
The vault is the store; a credential is one thing in it.
