Futurex HSMs can work together with a program called Apache Tomcat to protect server encryption keys and manage server data. Read on to find out more about Apache Tomcat and how to configure it with Futurex devices.
Read MoreKIO Networks will be hosting two events in partnership with VirtuCrypt on November 28th in Mexico City, Mexico and December 4th in Monterrey, Mexico. Both events will not only provide a complimentary breakfast but also include informative presentations covering what Crypto-as-a-Service could mean for your enterprise’s data security ecosystem. The landscape of data security is ever-changing, and now more than ever it is a must for companies to seek the best options that puts them ahead of the curve.
Read MoreFuturex and VirtuCrypt are the industry’s only single-vendor providers of complete cryptographic infrastructures for payment security. Many of Futurex’s most important services, like PIN encryption and validation, P2PE, and tokenization, rely on secure and compliant key management. In this blog post, we outline Futurex's solutions for remote key loading for ATM, Point of Sale, and IoT devices.
Read MoreIn order for the endpoint device (whether an ATM, Point of Sale terminal, or IoT device) to receive symmetric encryption keys for PAN or PIN encryption, it must first establish a secure connection with the remote key platform. PKI is a form of asymmetric cryptography where the sender and receiver use public and private keys to both decrypt messages and verify each other’s identity. PKI allows the endpoint device and the RKL platform to verify each other’s identities and securely exchange keys. In this blog post, we outline the primary cryptographic techniques used for remote key loading to ATM, Point of Sale, and IoT devices.
Read MoreSuccessful RKL operations require collaboration and standardized communication protocols between the device manufacturer and the RKL provider. The backbone of RKL is trust at both ends of the key exchange, one end being the RKL provider and the other being the field-level device. In this blog post, we spotlight the role of device manufacturers, whether ATM, Point of Sale, or IoT in general, in deploying compliant remote key loading functionality.
