Requirements for HSM

If you are planning to use HSM to store encryption keys, then set up the following before you proceed:

  1. HSM Server
  2. HSM Client
  3. At least one 3DES key in HSM

    Important! Ensure that you have securely written down the labels of these 3DES keys. You use them while encrypting information in the database.

See your platform vendor documentation for detailed information about how to install and configure your HSM Server and Client components and generate the required keys.
