Excrypt SSP Enterprise v.2
The most feature-rich payment HSM available
Robust and ultra-powerful
The industry’s leading payment HSM
The Excrypt SSP Enterprise v.2 is the world’s fastest hardware security module (HSM). Its main use case is payment transaction processing. The Excrypt SSP v.2 offers vast cryptographic functionality and is highly scalable. It can reach speeds over 50,000 TPS. It is backward-compatible with the Excrypt SSP Series of HSMs and comes in a 1U rackmount, tamper-proof chassis.
- Create virtual HSMs with unique firmware versions, users, key storage space, and security policies
- Access the Excrypt SSP v.2 by using a web portal, APIs, the Guardian Series 3, and VirtuCrypt
- Test new firmware on independent virtual instances
Fastest payment HSM on the market
This device provides full redundancy, superior performance, and platform virtualization. The Excrypt SSP v.2 is the fastest payment HSM in the world, scalable to over 50,000 transactions per second.
Universal compatibility
The Excrypt SSP v.2 offers turnkey compatibility with all major financial host application software sold around the world. It also supports standards-based interfaces like PKCS #11 and Java for general-purpose cryptographic processing.
Scripting and automation
You can create and deploy virtual HSMs with the Futurex Client Library (FXCL) and the Futurex Command Line Interface (FXCLI). This involves a standardized process that you can script and automate.
Disaster recovery and redundancy
The Excrypt SSP v.2 contains integrated disaster recovery and redundancy features. The device complies with all major key management best practices and features physical and logical security controls.
HSM powerhouse
The Excrypt SSP Enterprise v.2 excels in high throughput environments where reliability and functionality are crucial.
Diverse use cases
Use PKCS #11 for host application integration and RSA asymmetric key loading to connected payment devices.
HSM virtualization
Create logically independent HSMs in a host device for separate transaction processing environments.
Process over 50,000 transactions per second in an efficient 1U device
The Excrypt SSP Enterprise v.2 excels in enterprise environments with high throughput. The Excrypt SSP Enterprise v.2 provides full system redundancy and platform virtualization, making it a cornerstone of security infrastructure. It happens to be the fastest payment HSM in the world, capable of processing over 50,000 transactions per second (TPS), all in an efficient 1U form factor device. However, you can scale its power and range of functions according to need.

Vaultless tokenization
Futurex uses an advanced form of tokenization called vaultless tokenization. This performs tokenization without token vaults, reducing exposure of clear-text data.
Point-to-point encryption (P2PE)
The Excrypt SSP Enterprise v.2 encrypts data from the point of capture to storage. This ensures that data is never transmitted in the clear.
EMV data preparation and transaction processing
Take advantage of highly scalable payment transaction processing speeds of over 25,000 TPS. Maintain separate, virtual instances of the HSM within a host device.
RSA for asymmetric key loading to ATMs
Generate asymmetric key pairs using the RSA public-key encryption algorithm. This works with public-key cryptography to load asymmetric keys into connected devices such as ATMs.
PKCS #11 for host application integration
The Excrypt SSP Enterprise v.2 connects with standards-based interfaces like PKCS #11 or Java to maximize integration with external applications.
Integrated smart card reader
The integrated smart card reader complies with key management best practices for loading and distributing key components.

HSM virtualization
The Excrypt SSP Enterprise v.2 can create multiple logically independent HSMs inside a single host device for separate transaction processing environments. It provides virtualization capabilities that allow users to host logically separated virtual HSMs within a single physical device.
- Unique firmware versions, users, key storage space, and security policies on each virtual HSM
- Multiple methods of access including a web portal, API, the Guardian Series 3, and VirtuCrypt
- Test new firmware on an independent virtual instance
- Increase the ROI of your HSM infrastructure
