Overview
Securosys JCE Provider
The integration of Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) and Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA) with Securosys PrimusHSM provides a robust and secure solution for cryptographic operations within Java applications. This integration allows seamless communication with Primus HSM clusters and CloudsHSM, ensuring the highest level of protection for key management and cryptographic processes.
Key Features
| Versatile Integration | JCE/JCA seamlessly integrates with PrimusHSM, offering a flexible and language-agnostic solution for Java applications. |
| Secure Cryptographic Operations | Enable cryptographic functionalities such as signing and encryption with the utmost security, leveraging the power of PrimusHSM. |
| Confidentiality and Integrity | Ensure the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive data by harnessing the capabilities of Hardware Security Modules. |
| Integration Workflow | Direct Connection to HSM Partition (User): Deploy JCE/JCA within your Java application to establish a secure and direct connection to a single HSM partition, allowing for cryptographic operations. |
| Flexible 1:n Configuration | Support a 1:n configuration where one JCE/JCA interface (Java application) connects with multiple HSMs or partitions. |
Architecture
The following diagram explains at a high level the basic concepts of using our HSM in your own cluster or in our CloudsHSM service.
Use Case
The documentation provides copy, paste sample codes on incorporating JCE/JCA functionalities, including:
- Key generation
- Signing payloads using the keys created
- TLS establishing SSL secure sockets (secure transport layer)
- PKCS12
- Certificate handling
- Integrated Encryption Scheme
- CryptoCurrency
This integration empowers your Java applications with robust cryptographic capabilities, ensuring the highest standards of security for your data.
