About Key Injection for IoT Devices
Key injection is the foundational process for securely embedding encryption keys into devices. It can be used to assign a unique identity for each device or to allow devices to verify firmware updates.
Key injection plays a crucial role in safeguarding cardholder data and maintaining the security of IoT devices throughout their lifecycle.
The Role of HSM in key Injection Processes for IoT Security
The security of the key injection process relies on the protection of cryptographic keys. To prevent compromise, these keys must be securely generated and stored. Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) play a crucial role by generating public/private key pairs using a true random number generator. They also enable direct key injection during production, ensuring secure deployment while meeting industry-specific compliance requirements for the highest security standards.
Solutions for Key Injection
Utimaco’s General Purpose HSMs ensure secure key injection during production, meeting FIPS 140-2 Level 3 and industry regulations. Key benefits for key injection include:
- Reliable key generation: The built-in true random number generator ensures randomness and security of keys.
- Hardware-based security: Key are managed in a tamper-resistant environment.
- PQC-ready: Utimaco supports PQC for the protection of long-lived devices against emerging quantum threats.
