DFNS
DFNS is a core banking platform for digital assets. DFNS enables hundreds of banks, fintechs, and businesses around the world to run their financial operations and build their products—onchain.
DFNS can integrate with HSMs via the PKCS#11 API, enabling it to delegate key generation and usage to an HSM. Through this integration you can keep your digital wallet keys securely in a tamper-proof, high-performance HSM. This allows for professional key management throughout the key lifecycle, including key generation, backup, and rollover.
Benefits
- Secure your keys: Keep your digital wallet keys securely inside a Primus HSM.
- High availability: Deploy your Primus HSMs as an auto-syncing, geo-redundant cluster.
- High performance: A single X2-series Primus HSM can deliver thousands of EC key generations per second and tens of thousands of EC signatures per second. Performance scales linearly with the number of devices in a cluster.
