Store keys and firmware in a Utimaco CryptoServer Cloud
Store your keys and your firmware within the secure parameter of a dedicated Hardware Security Module (HSM) under your sole control and away from your Cloud Service Provider:
In an effort to concentrate on their core competencies, companies are increasingly moving towards external, cloud-delivered IT services.
What drives this strategy is usually at least one of the following 2 factors:
- The ambition to be a technology leader when it comes to “digitizing” the enterprise – and this includes a cloud strategy, or
- Cost: the desire to substitute CAPEX vs. OPEX while maintaining the ability to scale rapidly.
Per consequence, many companies recognize the need to protect their data and assets in the cloud by using encryption.
Best practice for implementing a secure multi-cloud strategy: keep keys separate.
Keep the keys safe and separate – in a Hardware Security Module – separate from the Cloud Service Providers (CSPs):
- Manage Risk: by being cloud agile! Keeping the keys separate.
- How do we maintain a certain cloud platform independence, if we have decided to go for one or several Cloud Service Provider?
- What if we need to migrate data between different Cloud Service Providers? Can we switch providers if we have stored the encryption keys with the data?
Use a fully customizable Hardware Security Module (HSM) in the cloud to innovate in the cloud!
- Create value: can we also use the secure storage of the keys to secure our most valuable assets, for example
- Customized firmware that performs
- key derivations,
- key padding or
- other crypto functions that require a particularly high speed?
