memModuleDescription The nShield modules: nShield F3 6000e, nShield F3 1500e, nShield F3 500e, nShield F3 10e, nShield F3 6000e for nShield Connect, nShield F3 1500e for nShield Connect and nShield F3 500e for nShield Connect family of secure e-commerce HSMs are multi-tasking hardware modules that are optimized for performing modular arithmetic on very large integers. The nShield modules are FIPS 140-2 level 2 embedded devices. The units are identical in operation and only vary in the processing speed.
