Entrust nShield Software Option Packs are easy to set up and deploy, delivering everything you need to integrate high assurance nShield HSMs into your preferred environment.
The nShield WSOP provides a REST-like API between applications requiring cryptographic key and data protection services and FIPS-certified nShield HSMs. nShield HSMs perform a variety of cryptographic functions, including encryption, signing, random number generation, and key generation.
Containerized applications can be hard to integrate with high assurance hardware security modules. When the time from staging to production is critical, you need a proven deployment model and scripts that reduce the overall development cycle. nCOP simplifies the process of building HSM support into containerized solutions and provides a template deployment model without the worry of HSM integration.
Digital time stamping is integral to an organization’s ability to verify data and code integrity, generate audit trails, and enforce non-repudiation for electronic signatures. Entrust delivers a secure, high assurance time-stamping solution protected by nShield Solo XC HSMs. This time stamping solution automates records processing and supports a diverse array of applications.
Cloud-friendly, REST-like interface for nShield HSM software in high assurance environments.
Containerized applications integrated with high assurance FIPS certified nShield HSMs.
Secure, accurate time stamping ensures the integrity and traceability of digital records, code signing, transactions, logs, and more.
Use your HSM software and nShield HSMs to generate, store, and manage the keys you count on to secure your sensitive cloud-hosted applications.
Integrate with Microsoft SQL Server using Microsoft’s Extensible Key Management (EKM) API.
Enable post-quantum cryptographic applications for nShield HSMs and HSM software.
