What is IBM Cloud® HSM?
A hardware security module (HSM) is a dedicated crypto processor designed for the protection of the crypto key life cycle. HSMs act as trust anchors that protect the cryptographic infrastructure of some of the most security-conscious organizations in the world by securely managing, processing, and storing cryptographic keys inside a hardened, tamper-resistant device. Cloud HSM is a FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validated, single-tenant device available around the world where you need it most.
