I am essentially asking the same question that Eirik Overby asked a
couple of years ago. Is anyone aware of PCI-X/PCIe hardware security
modules that are supported on FreeBSD? I have not seen any on the
FreeBSD hardware compatibility lists. Again, as Eirik noted in his
question, HSMs are not simply crypto accelerators (which are supported
on FreeBSD), they also are a means of storing keys with physical,
tamper-resistant security.
Thanks.
