PrivateServer HSM Features and Benefits

PrivateServer provides a wide range of cryptographic operations, such as data encryption and secure key storage, for application servers using TCP/IP.

 


PrivateServer HSM Features

  • Security: PrivateServer is FIPS 140-2 level 3 validated, featuring a highly secure, tamper evident device, incorporating strict security measures to protect and highly sensitive information. All sensitive operations are performed within PrivateServer’s trusted environment.
  • Ultimate Key Storage and Management: PrivateServer has the unique capability of storing and managing large capacity of encryptions and signing keys in its internal secure database. Key management gives your organizations a convenient, sophisticated and innovative method of managing cryptographic keys. It has the ability to eliminate the need for an external key database, offering tighter control of highly sensitive keys.
  • Ease of Management: PrivateServer’s network attached capability is designed to provide your organization with an easy to deploy and easy to manage device. 
    Due to PrivateServer's network attached capabilities, multiple independent applications can access a single PrivateServer HSM concurrently. This eliminates the need of installing a separate HSM for each application server, delivering a convenient and cost-effective solution.
    PrivateServer provides remote-management, load balancing and high-availability capabilities. Hardware modifications within the organization’s servers are not required.
  • User Friendly: With PrivateServer‘s friendly graphical management utility, organization administrators can easily and more efficiently perform operations within PrivateServer.
  • High Performance: PrivateServer offers superior performance of both symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic operations. PrivateServer achieves 2000 symmetric transactions per second and up to 150 RSA signatures per second. PrivateServer’s high performance capabilities allow organizations to reduce costs by reducing the total number of HSM’s required.
  • Authorization and Control: PrivateServer ensures strict user access control to all keys and operations. Only authorized users with special permission have access to PrivateServer and to specific keys.
  • Compatibility: A high-level API ensures easy and convenient integration of security services with any application using standard APIs such as PKCS#11, Microsoft® CAPI and JCE/JCA. PrivateServer already supports numerous financial packages for 3D Secure, EMV personalization and issuing, and EMV authorization.
  • Flexible and Customizable: Customizable PrivateServer modules are available according to customer’s unique requirements. Customers have the ability to develop individual software modules to be securely self-installed on PrivateServer.
