Description
The IBM 4768 PCIe Cryptographic Coprocessor Hardware Security Module is in the form of a programmable PCIe card that offloads computationally intensive cryptographic processes from the hosting server, and performs sensitive tasks within a secured tamper responding hardware boundary. The evolutionary design builds on previous generations of IBM cryptographic technology, improving performance over its predecessors. The IBM 4768 is supported on select IBM Z processors as the Crypto Express6S feature and on select x86 systems.
