The Distributed Secrets Vault is a leaderless cluster system where secrets are split using Shamir's Secret Sharing for safe storage and versatile recovery. Security comes from shard distribution, as opposed to traditional key management. Our team's goal is in implementing a backend system to serve as the distributed cluster for shards. This would also include distributed storage of relevant associated metadata. Our team has also set out to create a client system for interacting with this, allowing for quick adoption and interaction outside of just our pedagogic use-case.
