About OpenBao

OpenBao gives teams an open-source path for secret storage, credential brokering, and encryption workflows without locking core security plumbing into a single vendor.

It is most relevant for infrastructure-heavy organizations that want self-hosted control, ecosystem compatibility, and a community-governed approach to secrets management.
