Retrofittable security for IoT devices
02 March 2023
WITH THE PU-50n iShield HSM series, Swissbit offers a reliable solution for storing security keys for identification, authentication, and registration of devices in the Internet of Things (IoT).
The retrofittable plug-and-play USB hardware security module (HSM) closes security gaps that can occur with software-based storage of cryptographic keys.
Manufacturers of connected devices, such as gateways or controllers, as well as system integrators for building and industrial automation, benefit from the 'Made in Germany' security, the ability to easily upgrade and update the security feature at any time and without complications.
iShield HSM stores the device's private key and certificate so securely that they cannot be disclosed or duplicated in software. The compact, rugged, high-quality USB key supports PKCS#11 and PKCS#15 public-key cryptography standards and is compatible with an open-source software stack (e.g., OpenSC).
A Secure Element (CC EAL6+) is embedded in the iShield HSM hardware using chip-on-board technology, making it tamper-proof and suitable for harsh operating environments.
