HARDWARE SECURITY MODULE:

Hardware Security Module is specialized security appliance to securely store Digital keys and perform various Cryptographic operations like Encryption, Signing, Key Exchange, Key Provisioning, Key management, Database Encryption, Authentication etc.

HSM comes with mandatory Security certifications – FIPS 140-2 Level 2/3 , Common Criteria (CC) EAL4 +  and cater to security compliance need for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR, CCA etc.

Few of the Top Use cases for HSM:

Digital Signature, Server Based Digital Signing,

Bulk Document Signing

Certifying Authorities (PKI)

Database Encryption, Transparent Data Encryption

PCI DSS Compliance

GDPR, Data Security

Smart Card Issuance

Hardware for Storing

DNSSEC

Establishing SSL connection

Block Chain, Crypto Currency Wallet

HSM comes primarily in PCI card format or Network attached 1U rack appliance format.  Depending upon use case one can easily evaluate the requirement and figure out the Type and performance of HSM.
