Cryptsoft today announced the release of its Key
Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) C Server
Integration Module for Intel® Software Guard Extensions
(Intel® SGX) at the RSA Conference 2017.
With this latest KMIP C Server Integration Module,
Cryptsoft covers the full range of hardware security
protection options for our customers' cryptographic keys,
from traditional incumbent HSMs, to modern challengers'
rich-featured HSMs, to fully leveraging native security
capabilities found in the latest modern CPU chip sets.
"Cryptsoft is continuing to meet market demand by
expanding our industry-leading range of KMIP Server
software development kits (SDKs) to include support
for the Intel® SGX technology making secure on-chip key
management available on Intel® SGX capable CPUs,
Intel® SGX provides an exciting new range of
additional security capabilities which we are bringing

One of the largest showings of support for security
standards in RSA Conference history is happening this
week. The nonprofit OASIS open standards consortium has
brought together 24 companies to demonstrate support for
the STIX and TAXII cyber threat intelligence standards,
Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) standard,
and the Public-Key Cryptography Standard (PKCS) #11. The
demos are being held in Booths 2121 and 2115 from 13-16
February.
"This year's RSA Conference enables us to demonstrate
both the latest work of the Technical Committees
and the depth of capabilities within products that
implement these standards.
Demonstrating interoperability between these products
live at the RSA Conference reinforces the reality of
choice of vendor solutions for CIOs, CSOs and CTOs,
enabling products from multiple vendors to be deployed
as a single enterprise security solution that addresses
both current and future requirements."
said Tony Cox of Cryptsoft,
co-chair of the OASIS KMIP and PKCS#11 Technical Committees
and KMIP and PKCS#11 Interop Lead.
"Reliable storage, availability and lifecycle management
of security objects has become a focus for enterprises;
interoperability between key management, security,
and encryption systems is no longer 'nice-to-have' but
essential. The OASIS KMIP and PKCS #11 standards provide
mechanisms to address the fundamental interoperability
requirement enabling migration from single point ad-hoc
products to full enterprise security solutions. As a
major OEM technology supplier, supplying OASIS conformant
solutions ensures interoperability is a reality for
our customers."
said Tim Hudson, CTO at Cryptsoft.
