Trustway Hardware Security Module Trustway Hardware Security Module Data Security Choosing the right path through compliance Trusted partner for your Digital Journey Adapt to changing regulations & threats As cyber threats are constantly evolving, securing data became a major stake for companies and critical infrastructures. The threat landscape is continuously changing: • Attack surface is expanding with the rise of cloud, mobile and IoT • Attack actors are motivated as they are after the company’s money, sensitive information, key data and reputation • Attack vectors are more targeted & complex and take advantage of all types of system vulnerabilities. Facing such challenges require organizations to adapt their security policy, including data protection measures. Moreover, they have to comply to laws and regulations such as the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). The objective of the GDPR, which has applied to organisations 25 May 2018, is to strengthen and unify data protection for European citizens in every country. It will have a structural impact on the security of IT systems. Organizations must comply with these new regulations that protect data privacy and include them in their security policy. They must therefore resort to high security solutions tailored to their situation. Beyond mere compliance, companies can build a relationship of trust with their customers and partners through cyber security.

  • A Hardware Security Module Is Found Not Immune to Hacking
    Memo 12/06/2019 - TLP:WHITE A Hardware Security Module is found not immune to hacking Reference: Memo [190612-1] Date: 12/06/2019 - Version: 1.1 Keywords: HSM, cryptography, PKCS#11, digital services Sources: publicly available information Key Points Security researchers released a paper revealing how they managed to hack a Hardware Security Module (HSM). HSM-s are used to generate, manipulate and store sensitive cryptographic secrets (SIM cards, credit cards, secure boot hardware, disk and database encryption, PKI...). HSM-s are also used by cloud service providers, such as Google or Amazon, allowing clients to centrally create, manage and use their cryptographic secrets. Summary Researchers from a French technology company, specialising in blockchain and cryptocurrency ecosystems, published and presented a paper detailing how they managed to dump the whole content of a Hardware Security Module (HSM), manufactured by an undisclosed company. In order to achieve this, they proceeded as follows: 1. They started by using legitimate software development kit (SDK) access to their test HSM to upload a firmware module that would give them a shell inside the HSM. Note: A SDK is typically a set of software development tools that allows for the creation of applications for a certain software package, software framework, hardware platform, or computer system. Note that this SDK access was used to discover the vulnerabilities, but is not necessary to exploit them. 2. They then used the shell to run a fuzzer on the internal implementation of PKCS#11 commands to find reliable, exploitable buffer overflows. Note: PKCS#11 refers to public-key cryptography standards or to a programming interface used to create and manipulate cryptographic tokens.

  • Spoofing a Hardware Security Module
