What is HSM?

A Hardware Security Module (HSM) is a dedicated hardware device used to securely manage, process, and store cryptographic keys. HSMs provide a tamper-resistant environment, protecting keys from unauthorized access and misuse. They are commonly used in applications such as payment processing, digital signature generation, code signing, and certificate authority (CA) operations, ensuring the integrity and security of sensitive cryptographic operations.
