Frequently asked questions
How does Cordum govern HashiCorp Vault actions?
Cordum evaluates every HashiCorp Vault action against your policy before execution. The Safety Kernel returns Allow, Deny, or Require Approval decisions, ensuring agents operate within approved boundaries.
Do I need to modify my existing HashiCorp Vault setup?
No. The Cordum HashiCorp Vault pack installs as an overlay. It intercepts agent actions at the governance layer without changing your existing HashiCorp Vault configuration.
What happens if an agent action is denied?
The action is blocked before execution, logged in the audit trail, and optionally triggers an alert. The agent receives a structured denial with the policy reason, so it can adjust its approach.
