memModuleDescription The nCipher nShield range of tamper resistent Hardware Security Modules improves the security of cryptographic keys and increases server throughput for digital
signature and encryption applications. Supporting many commercial public key
infrastructure (PKI) products such as certificate authorities and on-line
validation servers, the nShield family of HSMs is also used for building custom
security applications requiring secure and flexible key management.
