Thales Trusted Cyber Technologies, a division of Thales Defense & Security, has launched its Luna T-Series Tablet Hardware Security Module designed to protect data, applications and cryptographic keys in an offline environment.
Its design works to provide a wide range of functions, such as the protection of public key infrastructure root keys, Thales said.
Users can encrypt and maintain all of their key materials within a tamper-resistant hardware to ensure key protection, the company added.
The system operates through a host-powered USB port and comes with an LCD status display.
Coupled with the Luna T-Series Tablet HSM launch, Thales also released its Luna T-Series HSM version 7.13.2, which is compliant with the Federal Information Processing Standard 140-3, a benchmark for cryptographic hardware security validation. In addition, the company announced the availability of its new Thales TCT T-Series Backup HSM, which is also packaged as a handheld device with a FIPS 140-3 compliant hardware.
