netHSMData Protection Solution
A data protection solution ensures enterprise security
As the enterprise has become simultaneously more distributed and more connected, data security has become a critical issue. To be competitive, organizations have deployed data protection solutions. But the success of these products hinges on the quality of the software and hardware chosen to protect the cryptographic keys required for any data protection solution involving encryption. And for the leading solutions for key security, enterprises everywhere rely on nCipher.

nCipher delivers hardware to enhance your data protection solution
When cryptographic keys are left unprotected, they can be stolen or misused, compromising the quality of your data protection solution. As a leading provider of solutions for the security-conscious enterprise, nCipher offers a range of FIPS 140 certified host security modules, or HSMs, that offer superior physical protection of cryptographic keys. nCipher nShield is a dedicated HSM that is tamper-resistant and can process up to 4000 transactions per second, making it a benchmark in cryptographic modules. nCipher netHSM also offers key security and can process up to 2000 transactions per second, but it can be shared between multiple servers, providing greater cost-efficiency. nCipher's payShield option is a hardware security module designed for the strict standards of the payments industry, and can handle large volumes of symmetric and asymmetric cryptography required by the latest payments systems. nCipher also offers hardware for SSL security that can offload or accelerate SSL transactions, allowing this highly effective cryptographic security to be deployed more widely throughout the organization without impacting the performance of servers. nCipher's RFC3161 compliant time stamping hardware allows the organization to integrate time stamping technology into common applications. And document signing hardware provides a streamlined method for determining the authenticity of electronic documents.
Key management solutions for greater protection of critical data
Along with hardware to protect cryptographic keys and optimize a data protection solution, nCipher offers a leading key management solution in keyAuthority. This innovative application centralizes and automates the work of generating, distributing, retrieving and storing cryptographic keys. Without such an application, the task of key management can quickly overwhelm an organization, diminishing the effectiveness of an encryption deployment. keyAuthority helps reduce the cost of managing keys, and improves security by automating the enforcement of security policies throughout the enterprise.
