CryptoSwift

The CryptoSwift Hardware Security Module™ (HSM) is for high-assurance PKI application environments requiring a high degree of physical security as well as optimal performance. With its tamper-active design, the CryptoSwift HSM's evasive measures defeat physical attacks through detection and responses to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of keying information. CryptoSwift HSM also provides secure key generation, key storage, key archival, key cloning, key migration, and key management. In addition, strong two-factor authentication is provided for Security Officers and Operators with the CryptoSwift HSM's trusted channel, a USB port with Rainbow Technologies' iKey authentication solution.

Identrus, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), Certificate Authorities, and some high-assurance Web applications demand security for keying information. For example, if keying information is stored on a system disk drive, any type of "virus" software could be uploaded by a hacker to locate keying information and email that keying information out of the system. If an attacker has physical access to a system, the attacker might use a logic analyzer to deduce keying information. In higher-assurance applications, disclosure of keying information could result in theft of extremely large sums of real money, exposure of highly sensitive data, or compromise of a critical authentication process. CryptoSwift HSM provides the additional security required to protect sensitive keying information from malicious attacks and theft.
