The YubiHSM 2 FIPS enables organizations of all sizes to enhance cryptographic key security throughout the entire lifecycle, reduce risk and ensure adherence with compliance regulations. With the YubiHSM 2 SDK available as open source, organizations can easily and rapidly integrate support for the secure YubiHSM 2 FIPS into a wide range of platforms and systems for existing and emerging use cases where strong security is more critical than ever before
The YubiHSM 2 FIPS is a game changing hardware solution for protecting Certificate Authority root keys from being copied by attackers, malware, and malicious insiders. It offers superior cost effective security and easy deployment making it accessible for every organization. It offers a higher level of security for cryptographic digital key generation, storage, and management, for organizations running Microsoft Active Directory Certificate Services.
The YubiHSM 2 FIPS features are accessible by integrating with an open source and comprehensive software development toolkit (SDK) for a wide range of open source and commercial applications. The most common use case is hardware-based digital signature generation and verification. In additional emerging use cases such as securing cryptocurrency exchanges and IoT gateways are just a few examples of how the world’s smallest HSM can secure modern infrastructures.
YubiHSM 2 FIPS secures cryptographic keys through their entire lifecycle from secure key generation, attestation, secure key storage, secure key distribution, secure key backup all the way to secure key destruction if needed. Screen reader support enabled.
YubiHSM 2 FIPS offers a compelling option for secure generation, storage and management of keys. Key protection is done in the secure on-chip hardware isolated from operations on the server. Most common use cases involve protecting of the certificate authorities (CAs) private key. YubiHSM 2 FIPS capabilities include: generate, write, sign, decrypt, hash and wrapping keys.
YubiHSM 2 FIPS can be used as a comprehensive cryptographic toolbox for low-volume operations in conjunction with a huge set of open source and commercial applications spanning many different products and services. Most common use case involve on-chip hardware based processing for signature generation and verification. The YubiHSM 2 FIPS supports the PKCS#11 industry standard.
YubiHSM 2 FIPS can provide hardware backed keys for your Microsoft-based PKI implementation. Deploying YubiHSM 2 FIPS to your Microsoft Active Directory Certificate services not only protects the CA root keys but also protects all signing and verification services using the private key.
With the explosive growth of the cryptocurrency market also comes a high volume of assets that need protection to mitigate against emerging security risks. The YubiHSM 2 FIPS allows organizations to strongly secure cryptographic keys and keep sensitive financial information safe.
The Internet-of-Things (IoT) is a rapidly emerging area where systems often operate in hostile environments. That makes securing cryptographics keys even more important as organizations need to protect sensitive information. Cryptographic keys are used in numerous IoT applications, with insufficient security in place. Developers building IoT applications can rapidly enable support for the YubiHSM 2 FIPS to protect cryptographic keys and keep critical IoT environments from falling victim to hostile takeovers.
Create, import, and store keys, then perform all crypto operations in the YubiHSM 2 FIPS hardware to prevent theft of keys while at rest or in use. This protects against both logical attacks against the server, such as zero-day exploits or malware, and physical theft of a server or its hard drive.
YubiHSM 2 FIPS supports hashing, key wrapping, asymmetric signing and decryption operations including advanced signing using ed25519. Attestation is also supported for asymmetric key pairs generated on-device.
