-# SecretumVault Branding Guidelines
-
-## Overview
-
-SecretumVault is a post-quantum cryptographic secrets management system designed for modern cloud infrastructure. The brand identity reflects security, innovation, and technical sophistication through a cohesive visual system combining vault imagery with quantum-inspired elements. This guide covers logo systems, color palettes, typography, usage guidelines, and practical integration examples.
-
----
-
-## Logo System
-
-### Available Logo Variants
-
-SecretumVault provides multiple logo variants to accommodate different use cases and layouts:
-
-| Variant | File | ViewBox | Best For | Features |
-|---------|------|---------|----------|----------|
-| **Vertical Animated** | `secretumvault-logo.svg` | 200×280 px | Hero sections, interactive displays | Rotating orbits, pulsing core |
-| **Vertical Static** | `secretumvault-logo-s.svg` | 200×280 px | Print, documentation, static layouts | No animations, full color |
-| **Horizontal Animated** | `secretumvault-logo-h.svg` | 400×120 px | Navigation bars, headers | Rotating orbits, space-efficient |
-| **Horizontal Static** | `secretumvault-logo-h-s.svg` | 400×120 px | Print headers, static layouts | No animations, horizontal format |
-| **Animated Icon** | `secretumvault-icon.svg` | 200×200 px | App icons, favicons, UI elements | Full animations, square format |
-| **Static Icon** | `secretumvault-icon-s.svg` | 200×200 px | Favicon, print, badges | No animations, square format |
-| **B&W Logo** | `secretumvault-logo-bn.svg` | 200×200 px | Print (grayscale), restricted color | Single color, monochrome |
-| **B&W Icon** | `secretumvault-icon-bn.svg` | 200×200 px | Print, B&W documents | Single color, monochrome |
-
-### Logo Composition
-
-The vault icon consists of:
-
-- **Outer Ring (Dashed):** Cyan glow with rotating animation (20s cycle)
-- **Inner Circle:** Gradient fill (deep vault → primary → secondary)
-- **Central Node:** Quantum cyan core with pulsing effect (5.2px → 6.5px → 5.2px, 2s cycle)
-- **Orbital Electrons:** Four cyan dots rotating around the core (8s clockwise)
-- **Secondary Orbit:** Four purple dots at diagonal positions (12s counterclockwise)
-- **Vault Handle:** Gold-accented bar and circular ring overlay
-- **Text:** "SecretumVault" in Space Grotesk Bold, Quantum Cyan (#00D9FF)
-
-### Sizing & Clear Space

-
----
-
-## Usage Guidelines
-
-### DO ✓
-
-- Use complete logos with proper text and icon
-- Maintain clear space around logos (20px minimum)
-- Use appropriate variant for the medium (animated for web, static for print)
-- Scale logos proportionally
-- Use provided SVG files for vector graphics
-- Apply logos on contrasting backgrounds for visibility
-- Use recommended color combinations
-- Test logos across different screen sizes and devices
-- Use descriptive alt text: `alt="SecretumVault logo"` or `alt="Vault security icon"`
-
-### DON'T ✗
-
-- Distort or skew the logo (non-proportional scaling)
-- Change logo colors without explicit approval
-- Add effects (shadows, glows) beyond original design
-- Rotate logos at unusual angles
-- Use logo on cluttered backgrounds
-- Mix animated and static versions together
-- Rasterize SVGs without maintaining resolution
-- Remove or modify individual logo elements
-- Use logo without adequate clear space
-- Apply logos too small (below minimum size)
-- Use vague alt text: `alt="logo.svg"` or `alt="image"`
-
----
-
-## Integration Examples
-
-### Web Header
-
-```html
-<header>
-    <img src="/imgs/secretumvault-logo-h.svg"
-         alt="SecretumVault"

-</header>
-```
-
-### Favicon
-
-```html
-<link rel="icon" type="image/svg+xml" href="/imgs/secretumvault-icon.svg">
-```
-
-### Documentation Header
-
-```html
-<div style="background: #0A1929; padding: 2rem;">
-    <img src="/imgs/secretumvault-logo.svg"
-         alt="SecretumVault"

-</nav>
-```
-
-### Hero Section (Animated)
-
-```html
-<div style="background: #0A1929; text-align: center; padding: 4rem 2rem;">
-    <img src="/imgs/secretumvault-logo.svg"
-         alt="SecretumVault Logo"

-         width="200" height="280">
-</section>
-```
-
----
-
-## File Formats
-
-### Primary Format: SVG
-
-All official logos are provided as Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG):
-
-**Advantages:**
-- Resolution-independent scaling
-- Animated elements support
-- Reduced file size
-- Full browser support
-
-**Usage:** Web, digital displays, high-quality print output
-
-### Export Guidelines for Other Formats
-
-If exporting to raster formats (PNG, JPG):
-
-- **PNG:** Recommended for web (supports transparency)
-  - Minimum 2x resolution for Retina displays
-  - Optimize with tools like TinyPNG or ImageOptim
-- **PDF:** For print distribution (maintains vector quality)
-- **JPG:** Not recommended (no transparency, quality loss)
-
-### Export Settings
-
-When exporting from SVG:
-
-- **Minimum DPI:** 300 for print
-- **Color Space:** sRGB for web, CMYK for commercial print
-- **Transparency:** Preserve alpha channel for PNG
-- **Optimization:** Remove metadata, optimize paths
-
----
-
-## Social Media Specifications
-
-| Platform | Format | Recommended Size | Logo Variant |
-|----------|--------|------------------|--------------|
-| Twitter | Square | 400×400px | Icon or Vertical |
-| LinkedIn | Square | 400×400px | Icon or Vertical |
-| GitHub | Square | 200×200px | Icon |
-| Facebook | Square | 1200×1200px | Icon or Vertical |
-| Email Signature | Horizontal | 400×120px | Horizontal Static |
-
----
-
-## Print Implementation
-
-- Use `secretumvault-logo-s.svg` (static version)
-- Export to PDF for best print quality
-- Ensure minimum size of 1 inch (25.4mm)
-- Verify color accuracy with print vendor
-- Use CMYK color profile for commercial printing
-- Maintain clear space in print layouts
-
-### Export for Print
-
-If exporting SVG to raster for print:
-- Minimum 300 DPI
-- Maintain aspect ratio
-- Use PNG with transparency or PDF
-- Recommended tools: Inkscape, Adobe Illustrator, or online converters
-
----
-
-## Design System Integration
-
-### Quantum Vault Visual Language
-
-The SecretumVault logo employs a quantum theme that reflects the post-quantum cryptography foundation:
-
-- **Vault Imagery:** Security and protection
-- **Circular Orbital Pattern:** Quantum mechanics and atomic structure
-- **Rotating Elements:** Continuous motion and dynamism
-- **Cyan Accent:** Innovation and cutting-edge technology
-- **Gold Accents:** Value and trust
-

+# SecretumVault Documentation
+
+Welcome to the SecretumVault documentation.
+
+SecretumVault is a post-quantum cryptographic secrets vault for modern infrastructure, combining:
+- Post-quantum cryptography (ML-KEM-768, ML-DSA-65) with classical crypto
+- Multiple secrets engines (KV, Transit, Dynamic, PKI)
+- Cedar policy-based authorization (attribute-based access control)
+- Flexible storage backends (SurrealDB, filesystem, etcd, PostgreSQL)
