1min

The Hardware Security Module (HSM) is a physical computing device that safeguards and manages digital keys for strong authentication and provides crypto processing. Single Connect can encrypt and decrypt data with the key provided by the HSM.

To apply these settings, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Administration > System Config. Man.
  2. Set these parameters the HSM device provider supplies: hsm.enabled, hsm.method, hsm.provider.classname, hsm.keystore.type, hsm.keystore.alias, hsm.keystore.load.password, hsm.keystore.entry.password, hsm.secretkey.algorithm

Sample configuration parameters: hsm.enabled = true hsm.method = Client hsm.provider.classname = com.ncipher.provider.km.nCipherKM hsm.keystore.type = nCipher.sworld hsm.keystore.alias = secureworld hsm.keystore.load.password = xxx hsm.keystore.entry.password = xxx hsm.secretkey.algorithm = AES
