German company Nitrokey has released NetHSM 1.0, an open-source hardware security module.
"Your private keys are kept secure inside the NetHSM, in case of server hacks and the physical compromise of your data center. NetHSM allows you to easily fulfill security compliance requirements," the company says.
The NetHSM software can be used on the NetHSM hardware or as a Docker container.
"NetHSM can be easily managed via its command-line software. Client systems can easily integrate the REST API using the SDKs available in 35 programming languages, or use the PKCS#11 module. For a quick start you can access our NetHSM test server or run NetHSM as a container."
NetHSM contains a trusted platform module that is protected against physical tampering.
Nitrokey's long-term commitment to NetHSM development.
