CloudHSM for AWS

Managed hardware security module (HSM) for AWS

This service combines CloudHSM Economy 🔗 with a tailor-made XKS Proxy to generate and use your own encryption keys in the AWS Cloud.

Important: This service should not be confused with AWS CloudHSM

How it works

The XKS Proxy works as a docker image deployed between your AWS infrastructure and your HSMs in the Securosys cloud. Your keys are stored in your HSMs in the cloud. The XKS Proxy facilitates bidirectional forwarding of requests without accessing the cryptographic data.

Benefits and features

Easy deployment

The XKS Proxy can be quickly deployed in various architectures, including within an AWS VPC EC2 instance or as a public endpoint connection to AWS services for on-premises deployment.

Code transparency

You can review all software code and blueprints, ensuring peace of mind that neither AWS nor Securosys can access the plain view of your customer data.

Data sovereignty

Your HSM is responsible for encryption and decryption operations using your cryptographic key material. AWS KMS or the XKS proxy do not directly interact with your cryptographic data. Instead, all interactions are forwarded through the XKS proxy software that you manage.

Work with an open HSM built on industry standards

Securosys CloudHSM operates on a patented proprietary hardware and software architecture, meticulously crafted and sustained in-house, ensuring end-to-end control without any intermediaries.

Controllable "kill switch"

This incident response tool can deactivate the XKS proxy and stop any ongoing encrypt and decrypt operations utilizing XKS keys. AWS services that have previously loaded a data key into memory for one of your resources will persist in their functionality until you either deactivate the resource or the service key cache expires. 

No maintenance needed

The XKS Proxy is developed and maintained in-house by Securosys. Ensuring continuous updates and vigilance, it remains at the forefront of security standards, safeguarding your systems with the latest defenses.
