Data Integrity

The integrity of information transmitted around and stored within systems is of paramount importance to its users. The integrity of information generated at remote terminals can be secured, using message authentication codes (MACs). The HSM is compatible with WebSentry™ and Smart Card terminals. A number of applications such as Cash Management and Bond Reconciliation can be secured in this way.

 

Secure Key Storage

Once the Local Master Key (LMK) has been formed within the HSM, all other keys are stored encrypted under this key on the host and optionally within the HSM itself. The HSM uses Smart Card technology to store the key components of the LMK.
