Example Luna HSM Hybrid Solution Use Cases
- Secure Backup: Thales offers flexible options to help maintain business continuity, with offline backup HSM and cloud backup HSM solutions. You can backup on-premises Luna HSM hardware to a dedicated Luna Cloud HSM backup service available in Thales Data Protection on Demand (DPoD). Backups are encrypted before being transferred to the cloud backup service (DPoD), ensuring Thales doesn’t have access to your key material. You can also backup encryption keys from the Luna Cloud HSM to a dedicated Luna Backup HSM that is stored in a fire safe or similar secure location on-premises ensuring you always have a secure copy of your encryption keys.
- DevOps: Be up and running quickly by using the Luna Cloud HSM for development and test environments and a physical HSM for production. You can seamlessly switch to the on-premises Luna HSM for production with the use of the Thales Universal HSM Client which gives a single point of integration.
- Hybrid HSM Solution Between Different Business Locations: Luna HSM hybrid capabilities allow different instances of the same application to talk to different HSM infrastructures, while still keeping encryption keys synchronized. Both Luna HSMs (on-premises and cloud) can be used for bursting of applications between cloud and on-premises to help with peak performance requirements, enabling effective workload distribution.
- Using On-Premises HSMs Combined with Cloud HSMs: Luna HSM hybrid capabilities allow you to reduce your total on-premises footprint, while utilizing a cloud instance to maintain fault tolerance with a 99.95% SLA. All Luna HSMs can be used as a standby in case one HSM becomes unavailable, optimizing performance and maintaining SLAs.
Luna HSM Hybrid Solutions – Providing You with Peace of Mind
Whether you’re using an HSM on-premises or in the cloud, your critical keys are always securely stored in FIPS validated HSMs helping to reduce risks, maintain SLAs, and ensure regulatory compliance.
