ARIA microHSM

Zero-Footprint HSM Encryption and Key Management

Hundreds of Operations per Minute – With No Performance Impact

The ARIA microHSM hardware security module solution provides a secure, easy, and low-cost way for organizations to encrypt their high-value data while maximizing application performance. Users benefit from a ten times performance boost over software- or hypervisor-based encryption approaches that compete for CPU cores.

The ARIA microHSM approach is unique in that it can operate either as a standalone appliance or on a secured SmartNIC card that can run within the data center servers – efficiently securing the application data across the PCIe bus without ever going across an unsecured network. This gives it twice the performance of any other hardware security module at a fraction of the cost and with zero additional data center footprint.

ARIA microHSM Benefits

 

hardware security module

Zero-footprint Deployment
Deploy in any standard server in minutes, eliminating the need for network connectivity to an appliance.


HSM encryption

Securely Stored Keys
Encryption keys are securely stored and encryption operations are executed within ARIA microHSM’s hardware-based zone-of-trust. Separating these functions from the host core provides improved security and performance.


HSM hardware security module

Protect Crypto Keys
Crypto keys can’t be exposed and stolen on our hardware security module. This is a significant advantage over those that can be stolen when executed by applications running the server host.


HSM security

Secure Certificates
Securely generate certificates and encryption keys for the crypto operations leveraging the ARIA KMS application.


Compatible Products


Features:

  • Up to ten times the performance in server at half the cost when compared to a network connected HSM appliance
