SafeNet ProtectServer Gold
Hardware Security Module

Overview

• PCI Adapter based Hardware Security Module - HSM
• Secure tamper protected key storage and management
• Easy to use GUI simplifies HSM device administration and key management
• Supports Windows Server 2008

ProtectServer Gold Hardware Security Module (HSM) is FIPS 140-2, Level 3 validated, and provides high-performance secure cryptographic processing in server systems and supports applications requiring high-performance symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic operations. The 64 bit PCI interface, 4Mb secure storage capacity, and dedicated cryptographic processor provide high speed cryptographic operations, large storage and fast transaction speeds.

Solutions

Installed in server systems as a cryptographic subsystem, ProtectServer Gold provides a wide range of cryptographic services including high-speed encryption, user and data authentication, message integrity, as well as secure key storage and key management for e-Commerce. This is addition to PKI, document management, Electronic Bill Presentation and Payment (EBPP), database encryption, financial EFT transactions, plus many other applications.

Product Highlights

• Most Secure
  ProtectServer Gold HSM are FIPS 140-2, Level 3 validated and store all secret keys and sensitive data in protected memory and performs all sensitive cryptographic operations. Tamper resistant secure casing, battery backed secure key storage, automatic cryptographic key erasure upon tamper detection, True Random Number Generator, plus smart card cryptographic key transfer, ensure the ultimate level of secrecy/integrity of keys and sensitive data.
  
  
• High Performance with a Broad Range of Performance Levels
  ProtectServer Gold is available in a broad range of symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic performance levels to meet a wide variety of security application processing requirements. Processing speeds up to 600 RSA signatures (1024 bit) operations/sec (PL 600) are available.
  
  
• Extensive APIs
  SafeNet delivers one of the most comprehensive portfolios of cryptographic API's in the market. These enable users and developers to facilitate seamless integration of cryptography and HSMs into a large array of pre-integrated third party solutions, or custom applications.
  
  This includes the broadest suite of PKCS#11 function sets available on the market, a Java JCA/JCE and Microsoft CryptoAPI provider implementation, EFT command sets, plus seamless integration with OpenSSL via a PKCS#11-based engine implementation.
  
  In addition, the Customization Software Development Kit (ProtectProcessing), incorporating convenient software emulation capabilities, enables the development, download and storing of custom specific functionality modules (FMs) inside the secure boundary of the HSM.
  
  
• Easy Management
  ProtectServer Gold provides secure, easy to perform local and remote management plus infield servicing. Easy interaction and key management are achieved using a GUI based interface, plus remote network access to the HSM facilitates increased administration convenience, plus reduced cost and time. Smart cards provide the highest security and administrative convenience for secure backup, recovery and transfer of cryptographic keys and upgrades can be cost efficiently performed at the in-field location avoiding the need to return the product to the service location.
