+## Terraform Variables
+
+When you `push`, Terraform will automatically set the local values of
+your Terraform variables within Atlas. The values are only set if they
+don't already exist within Atlas. If you want to force push a certain
+variable value to update it, use the `-set` flag.
+
+All the variable values stored within Atlas are encrypted and secured
+using [Vault](https://vaultproject.io). We blogged about the
+[architecture of our secure storage system](https://hashicorp.com/blog/how-atlas-uses-vault-for-managing-secrets.html) if you want more detail.

+The variable values can be updated using the `-set` flag or via
