THALES DATA SECURITY SYSTEMS
Importance of data security is ever increasing and Verisoft works with THALES E-SECURITY for delivering best of breed hardware security systems.

THALES HSMs are designed to secure the data at rest like databases and disk files and data in transit like ATMs, POS terminals and transaction switches.

The worlds biggest banks and card processors rely on THALES for protecting data as well as IT giants like Microsoft and Apple.
​
There are two main groups of HSMs:  Payment HSMs: PayShield Family and General Purpose HSMs:  nShield  Family. These HSMs come in different sizes according to transaction speeds.

General purpose HSMs are used for digital signatures, CAs, TSMs, PKI and e-Invoicing projects.  Payment HSMs are used for securing and verifying PIN numbers and protecting card holder data, insurance and health information files. Perso HSMs are used for EMV data preparation and  EMV and NFC personalization.


THALES PayShield

Payshield 1o000 family HSMs are the latest model used in banking and insurance sector for protecting card data and EMV transaction processing with ATMs  and POS terminals. You can also use these HSMs for NFC Host Card Emulation projects with appropriate software. Payshield 10000 can be also used for EMV data preparation and personalization by installing a special firmware package.  

​Payshield HSM speeds can be upgraded in the field. These HSMs  are FIPS 140 Level 3 and certified according to PCI HSM standards.
​

Entrust Connect

​General Purpose HSMs are PKCS#11 standard hardware cryptographic devices which are used plug and play with operating systems such as UNIX, LINUX and Windows and databases such as Oracle and Microsoft Windows to protect the databases and implement PKI based system solutions for Certificate Authorities, Digital Signatures,  Software and Equipment Protection, TSM and other infrastructure protection.  eInvoice,  eNotary, eLedger projects work with Entrust HSMs.
Entrust Family are FIPS 140-3 and CC EAL5 certified HSMs.
​

Entrust Edge

The Entrust Edge is a full-featured, portable desktop HSM designed for low-volume transaction environments. This USB-connected device delivers capabilities for encryption and key protection, and is ideally suited for off-line key generation for certificate authorities (CAs) as well as development environments.
It is fully compatible with the features of the bigger Entrust Connect HSMs and Security World but with lower speeds.
Ideal for R&D and software development and testing HSM based cryptography.
