Overview
The Managed Guardian Service Vault is designed to benefit organizations and individuals looking to securely store their user account secrets, such as private keys. The Vault solution leverages the open-source version of Hashicorp Vault and is intended to be used with the Managed Guardian Service.
The Managed Guardian Service (MGS) is a SaaS solution for businesses that are developing apps for emissions reporting, carbon offset, and renewable energy credit creation. MGS makes managing technological infrastructure hassle-free, allowing businesses to concentrate on their core activities. The solution makes use of Verifiable Presentations (VPs), Verifiable Credentials (VCs), and Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) from the W3C to deliver a fully auditable environment "Trust Chain." It addresses the problems that exist in the market including bad data, uncertainty, possible double counting, greenwashing, and a general lack of confidence. The Managed Guardian Service is a hosted environment where we provide you with resources, tools, and support.
Once registered for the Managed Guardian Service, users will be given two account creation options. They may choose to bring their own vault or use this solution we custom-built for the Managed Guardian Service.

Usage instructions
-
Access the Vault UI: Open your web browser and navigate to the Vault UI's URL. It should be something like https://
:8200/ui/. -
Initialize the Vault: If this is the first time you're using Vault, you'll need to initialize it. Set the number of key shares and the key threshold. Key shares are the total number of parts the master key is split into, while the key threshold is the minimum number of parts required to unseal the Vault. For example, you can set key shares to 5 and the key threshold to 3. Click on the "Initialize" button on the welcome page.
-
Download the unseal keys and the initial root token: After initializing the Vault, you'll be provided with a set of unseal keys and an initial root token. Make sure to securely store this information, as it's required to unseal and authenticate with the Vault.
-
Unseal the Vault: You'll need to provide the required number of unseal keys (matching the key threshold) to unseal the Vault. Click on "Continue to Unseal" and enter the unseal keys one by one.
-
Log in to Vault: Once the Vault is unsealed, you'll be redirected to the login page. Select Token method of authentication and enter the initial root token you saved earlier and click "Sign In."
-
Create a secret engine: Now that you're logged in, click on the "Enable new engine" button on the right side.
Select Generic KV type and click next.
Enter a path for the secret engine, and make note of it. You will need to provide it later during the MGS setup. Keep Maximum number of versions 0 as defaulted. Click on Enable Engine.
- Create a secret: Select your newly created Secret engine (After creating engine you will be automatically redirected on this page)
To create a new secret, click the "Create secret" button.
