-----------------------------------
Summary: Add new provider of protected sensitive configuration
values for Hashicorp Vault
Key: NIFI-5481
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5481
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Configuration, Configuration Management, Core Framework,
Security
Affects Versions: 1.7.1
Reporter: Andy LoPresto
Assignee: Andy LoPresto

integrates with the [Hashicorp Vault|https://www.vaultproject.io] is a good
next step.
Vault is free and open source, widely adopted, and provides a
[CLI|https://www.vaultproject.io/docs/commands/index.html], [HTTP
API|https://www.vaultproject.io/api/index.html], and community-supported Java
client library [vault-java-driver - MIT
