transmise le 14 mars 2012 par Business Wire

Thales, leader in information systems and communications security, announces the Thales Key Management Device (KMD) for payment hardware security modules (HSMs) to provide high assurance security for the critical task of forming cryptographic keys securely from components. This capability, critical to enabling secure key exchange between communicating parties, reduces the risk of component exposure that exists with traditional approaches by enabling direct key component entry into a tamper-resistant security module (TRSM). This also provides significant operational benefits, as security officers involved in handling key components can now form keys for multiple hardware security modules (HSMs) across multiple sites using a single device.

Governments and businesses can reduce the cost of their infrastructure investments by more than $5 trillion by 2030 if they improve how they manage the risks inherent in large projects, according to a new report by Oliver Wyman. Maximizing Returns on Large Investment Projects estimates that 200 public and private capital investment projects each worth at least $500 million are under way globally.
