memModuleDescription The nCipher nForce family of secure e-commerce accelerators improves data
security and increases server transaction throughput in applications using the
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol such as secure web servers, or application
servers that process secure transactions. nForce provides hardware key storage
in addition to off-loading the SSL cryptographic processing from the host CPU.
