The HSM 7000 is a physically secure, tamper-resistant security server that provides cryptographic functions to secure transactions in retail and financial applications including:

• PIN encryption and verification
• Debit card validation
• Stored value card issuing and processing
• Chip card issuing and processing
• Message authentication
• Symmetric key management

With the optional DSP-RSA Module, the HSM can support public key cryptographic operations including digital signatures, certificates, and asymmetric key management. Acting as a peripheral to a host computer, the HSM provides the cryptographic facilities needed to implement the wide range of data security tasks including those required in the following environments:

• Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) systems
• Electronic Funds Transfer at point-of-sale (EFTPOS) systems
• Electronic trading and matching systems for bonds and securities
• Financial Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) systems
• Key management
• Internet Commerce
