Hardware Security Module is centered around encryption: the process by which sensitive data is rendered indecipherable to all except authorized recipients. It generate and store the keys used for encrypted communication among devices within a Secure Cryptographic Device (SCD), which is a far more secure method than solely using software. Hardware Security Modules act as trust anchors that protect the cryptographic infrastructure of some of the most security-conscious organizations in the world by securely managing, processing, and storing cryptographic keys inside a hardened, tamper-resistant device.
