Swissbit iShield HSM

Swissbit iShield HSM

Reliably Storing Security Keys for Device Authentication and Registration

The iShield HSM is a plug-and-play USB security anchor that allows system integrators to upgrade existing AWS IoT Greengrass devices with a hardware security module, making it the perfect retrofit solution for finished hardware designs & in-field devices. iShield HSM securely stores the device’s private key and certificate so that they aren’t exposed or duplicated in software. The product is available as a high-quality, robust & compact USB memory stick, which supports PKCS#11 and PKCS#15 and is compatible with an open source software stack (e.g. OpenSC). A Secure Element (CC EAL6+) is embedded into iShield HSM’s hardware in COB (Chip-On Board) technology, making it tamper-proof and suited for harsh operating environments.

The iShield HSM is qualified for AWS IoT Greengrass Hardware Security Integration (HSI), providing a secure storage for keys and credentials used for device identification, authentication and registration.
