Unlock the Power of On-Demand HSM Training for Luna 7 and nShield HSM

The global hardware security modules market size was estimated at USD 1.56 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 16.3% from 2024 to 2030. This tremendous growth only highlights the need for increasing demand for HSM expertise, which is slowly becoming necessary with growing security threats and stringent compliance requirements. In that regard, and to further facilitate even greater ease and accessibility in HSM expertise, we are thrilled to announce the launch of our On-Demand Training for HSMs, available from September 30, 2024 for Both Thales Luna 7 HSM and Entrust nShield HSM.

Our on-demand HSM training is designed to perfectly align with the current security and regulatory requirements of today and provides all the necessary information, from the basic architecture of the HSM that gives a complete overview of the basics to the advanced configurations and preparation for disaster recovery scenarios. 

Why are HSMs critical for your organization? 

HSMs are hardware security modules that securely manage and store encryption keys. These encryption keys are essential to many different security standards, including those that safeguard sensitive information.

Here’s why HSMs are critical for modern enterprises: 

  • Data Protection: HSMs safeguard sensitive data by ensuring that encryption keys are stored and processed in a secure, tamper-resistant environment. 
  • Regulatory Compliance Requirements: Many industries, including finance, healthcare, and government, have strict regulations requiring HSMs to ensure data integrity and security. 
  • Secure Digital Transactions: As more business processes move online, the need to secure digital transactions become increasingly important. HSMs are essential for protecting e-commerce, digital payments, and financial services. 
  • Enhanced Security current Security Posture: With HSMs, organizations can ensure that their encryption and decryption processes occur within a highly secure, dedicated hardware device, reducing vulnerabilities and attacks.

However, being proficient with HSMs is becoming more and more  challenging with the introduction of advanced features of HSMs and the growing security threats that challenge the security of HSMs. It requires in-depth knowledge of key management, cryptography and an understanding of how HSMs fit into larger IT systems and enterprise-level Infrastructure. That’s where our on-demand HSM training comes into play.
