A Hardware Security Module (HSM) is a physical computing device that provides a secure environment for the storage and processing of sensitive data. It is typically used to protect cryptographic keys and digital certificates, and is often used in payment processing, financial services, and other industries where security is paramount. HSMs are designed to be tamper-resistant and are typically certified to meet industry standards such as FIPS 140-2. HSMs are typically deployed in a secure environment, such as a data center, and are connected to the network via a secure connection. They are typically managed by a dedicated security team, and are often integrated with other security solutions such as firewalls and intrusion detection systems. HSM vendors include Thales, Gemalto, Utimaco, Futurex, and nCipher Security. Show Less Read more
