Comment on Cisco got hacked through a security scannerparent

The Trivy attack did not hack anyone's secrets manager. It just waited until the key was retrieved and sitting in memory as a plaintext string. Then read it.

VaultProof solves that specific moment. The key never exists as plaintext in your app or pipeline.

And even if VaultProof gets hacked, that is the whole point. We only store shares. Individual shares are mathematically useless. An attacker who completely owns our infrastructure still gets nothing they can use.

There is nothing to steal. That is the architecture.

Compromise VaultProof and you get worthless shares.
