Summary

HashiCorp has been actively collaborating with AWS on various security and networking initiatives, including securing workloads in EKS with HashiCorp Vault, providing a simple workflow to encrypt data in flight and at rest. The company's enterprise secrets management solution, Vault, was also integrated with AWS Lambda Extension Caching, which enables easier access to Vault secrets for edge applications. Additionally, HashiCorp has partnered with AWS to build an add-on repository that lets users enable and start up Vault instances in Kubernetes. Furthermore, the company has announced new caching features for Vault Lambda extension caching, allowing for secure local access to leased secrets. HashiCorp's Boundary product was also beta-released at AWS re:Inforce, providing a way to securely access critical systems with fine-grained authorizations based on trusted identities. The company won the AWS Security Partner of the Year in North America award, validating its vision for delivering zero trust security to cloud infrastructure. HashiCorp Consul is a cloud services networking platform that helps discover, securely connect, and improve the resiliency/visibility of services across various AWS services. The company has also released updates on Consul on Amazon ECS, including support for multi-tenancy, AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), and mesh gateways. HashiCorp's Cloud Platform provides a fully managed platform available for HashiCorp Terraform, Vault, Consul, Boundary, Waypoint, and Packer, offering a zero trust security solution fully deployed on the cloud, combining HCP Vault, HCP Consul, and HCP Boundary to secure applications, networks, and people.
