The Excrypt™System Security Processor (SSP) Series provides complete and robust transaction security for your ATM and POS networks. Our two highly innovative models, the Excrypt™ SSP7000 (250 to 1100 transactions per second) and the Excrypt™SSP9000 (2250 transactions per second) provide the ideal cost-effective, security solutions for your current and future needs.

Secure, Convenient & Easy to Use

Our Excrypt SSP Series, and all of our HSMs, are the only HSMs in the industry with a highly secure Ethernet (TCP/IP) port for transaction processing. Configuring this feature is easy to do and provides an important extra layer of security to prevent “man in the middle” attacks. Our HSMs also allow for dedicated port assignments, which can improve security and reduce risk.


In addition, the Excrypt SSP Series can store thousands of encryption keys in order to meet the key management needs through a single, secured SSP device. Keys can be easily loaded through the secured serial interface offline or while the Excrypt SSP is processing live transactions.

Industry Compliant

Adhering to industry standards, the Excrypt SSP Series is compliant with all audit requirements for the major switches to support not only the current, but also emerging security requirements. The units are a Tamper Resistant Security Module (TRSM), thereby giving you the robust protection you need to secure your growing financial network.
