What Does the PrivateServer HSM Do?
PrivateServer provides a wide range of cryptographic operations, such as data encryption and secure key storage, for application servers using TCP/IP.
These include:
| » |
EMV Card issuance; |
| » |
EMV authorizations; |
| » |
EMV data preparation; |
| » |
EMV-CAP authorizations; and |
| » |
Pin verification. |

How Does the PrivateServer HSM Work?
Any application that requires a cryptographic-based process will access PrivateServer through the network using the PrivateServer client. All data transferred across the network is encrypted. The process then takes place in the server, which accesses relevant keys provided the connecting user has the necessary permissions to do so. The entire operation is performed by PrivateServer, which then replies back to the client application to enable the transaction.
