Migration Paths for Luna USB HSM (G5) Customers
On-Premises Option – Luna USB HSM U700
The USB HSM U700 is ideal for customers that need to protect their critical business applications with updated cryptographic and offline key storage capabilities. It inherits the capabilities and security mechanisms of the 7th generation Luna HSM, including its full range of integration with third-party technology partners. With a handheld format, high quality touch screen, and PED key USB connector, the USB HSM brings a new level of convenience and reduced operating costs.
The Luna USB HSM U700 is a small form factor HSM that has been designed to be used by governments, financial institutions, and large enterprises to protect data, applications, and digital identities to reduce risk and ensure regulatory compliance. It is particularly well suited for the protection of PKI root keys with its offline design. Visit the product page to learn more.
