Hardware security modules protect cryptographic keys and ensure secure encryption processes in IoT devices.
Hardware security modules (HSMs) are specialized hardware devices designed to securely generate, store, and manage cryptographic keys. They provide a high level of protection for sensitive information such as encryption keys, digital signatures, and other cryptographic data. In the context of IoT devices, HSMs play a crucial role in ensuring that encryption processes are secure and that keys are protected from unauthorized access or tampering. By offloading cryptographic operations to dedicated hardware, HSMs help enhance the overall security posture of IoT deployments.
