What is a downside to using the Vault provider to read secrets from Vault?

1. A. Secrets are persisted to the state file and plans.
2. B. Terraform and Vault must be running on the same version.
3. C. Terraform and Vault must be running on the same physical host.
4. D. Terraform requires a unique auth method to work with Vault.

Correct Answer: A
The Vault provider allows Terraform to read from, write to, and configure Hashicorp Vault.
Interacting with Vault from Terraform causes any secrets that you read and write to be persisted in both Terraform's state file and in any generated plan files. For any Terraform module that reads or writes Vault secrets, these files should be treated as sensitive and protected accordingly.
