Google does not officially support this sample. Carefully evaluate any solution before deploying it in your production environment.\n\n[Hashicorp Vault](https://www.vaultproject.io/) lets you\nmanage and store secrets on-premises. This page provides information about\nhow you can configure Hashicorp Vault CA to act as a proxy that forwards all\ncertificate issuance requests to Certificate Authority Service. This configuration allows a\ncurrently deployed solution to work natively with CA Service.\n\nThe [Vault plugin for CA Service](https://github.com/googlecloudplatform/vault-plugin-secrets-gcppca)\nissues certificates through Hashicorp Vault by generating the private key and\ncertificate signing request (CSR), or by receiving a user-provided CSR. The\nplugin doesn't perform create and delete CA operations, or manage other aspects\nof the certificate authority (CA) lifecycle.\n\nAt a high level, the plugin acts as a proxy to issue certificates.\n| **Note:** The Vault plugin doesn't retain any public or private key that is generated during certificate issuance. The certificate requester should retain the certificate and keys that the Vault plugin generates.\n\nUsing the Vault plugin has the following advantages:\n\n- Administrators can use a familiar workflow and the existing access-control list (ACL) permissions in the Vault.\n- The administrator can define who gets to request certificates and what specifications and limits those certificates have.\n\nFor more information about setting up and using the plugin, see the [README:\nVault Plugin for CA Service](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/vault-plugin-secrets-gcppca/blob/master/README.md).\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n- [GitHub: Vault Plugin for CA Service](https://github.com/googlecloudplatform/vault-plugin-secrets-gcppca)\n- [Hashicorp Vault documentation](https://www.vaultproject.io/docs)"]]
