Vault for Apache Tomcat

Tomcat-vault is a PicketLink vault extension for Apache Tomcat. It allows you to place sensitive information, such as passwords, inside of a vault instead of the Tomcat configuration files.

Installation

See the INSTALL file for instructions on installation and usage.

How it works

At start up, the Tomcat digester module parses configuration files and references the vault keystore when a ${parameter} is found within a Tomcat configuration file. If the ${parameter} is found within the vault, then the ${parameter} is replaced with the value of the corresponding attribute.
