Procenne is a leader in digital security and cryptography solutions, specializing in hardware-based security modules that protect sensitive data and manage encryption keys with the highest level of assurance. For organizations that require robust encryption – such as banks, government agencies, cloud service providers, and any enterprise handling sensitive transactions – Procenne’s products provide the backbone for trust and security.

At the heart of Procenne’s offerings are its Hardware Security Modules (HSMs). The flagship ProCrypt HSM is a tamper-resistant hardware device that safeguards cryptographic keys and performs cryptographic operations (like encryption, decryption, digital signing, authentication) in a secure environment. Unlike general-purpose servers, an HSM is designed from the ground up for security: it has physical protections against tampering (if someone tries to open or interfere with it, it will erase its secrets), and strong logical isolation so that keys never leave the device in an unencrypted form. Using HSMs is considered a best practice (and often a compliance requirement) for critical applications such as certificate authorities, payment processing (e.g., protecting credit card transactions), blockchain systems, and secure authentication systems.

Key capabilities of Procenne’s HSM and related technologies include:

• Ultra-Secure Key Storage: ProCrypt HSM provides a vault for cryptographic keys, ensuring that your most sensitive keys (for SSL/TLS, database encryption, code signing, etc.) are only ever used within the secure confines of the device. Even administrators of the system cannot extract these keys in plain form. This drastically reduces the risk of key theft, which would be catastrophic (as stolen keys could allow an attacker to decrypt sensitive data or impersonate your services).
• High-Performance Cryptographic Operations: Procenne’s HSMs are built to handle a large number of operations per second, offloading heavy crypto tasks from your application servers. They come with specialized hardware (security processors) that can perform encryption, decryption, and signing much faster than a typical software implementation, and without exposing keys. This is vital for high-throughput environments like banking transactions or telecom authentication, where an HSM can process transactions in real-time without becoming a bottleneck. Procenne HSMs are optimized to provide both security and speed, enabling digital transformation projects to scale securely.
• Cryptographic Services & Algorithms: ProCrypt HSM supports a wide range of industry-standard algorithms (RSA, ECC, AES, 3DES, SHA-2/3, etc.) and protocols. It can generate true random numbers, create key pairs, sign certificates, encrypt bulk data, verify signatures – essentially all cryptographic services an organization might need. This makes it a versatile component, whether you’re securing an e-commerce platform or protecting an electronic passport system.
• CryptAway – HSM Orchestration and Key Management: In addition to hardware, Procenne provides software like CryptAway, which functions as an HSM gateway and key management system. CryptAway allows organizations to cluster multiple HSMs together for high availability and performance (load balancing crypto operations across them) and even use different brands of HSMs in a unified way. It simplifies the administration of keys by providing a centralized interface to create, rotate, back up (securely), and monitor keys and certificates. Essentially, CryptAway ensures you use your HSMs at highest efficiency without vendor lock-in, and maintain a clear audit trail and governance over all cryptographic material.
• Procenne Cloud HSM: For organizations moving to the cloud or who prefer not to maintain physical hardware, Procenne offers a Cloud HSM service. This service delivers all the benefits of an HSM through a cloud-based model – you can generate and use your keys in a secure remote HSM partition, while Procenne handles the maintenance of the underlying hardware. This solves challenges around cost and hosting; you don’t need to invest in data center space or worry about device lifecycle. Procenne Cloud HSM allows you to extend cryptographic security to cloud workloads easily, while still retaining full control over keys (often the cloud HSM is set up so that only you have access to the key material, not even the cloud provider).
• Compliance and Certifications: Procenne’s solutions adhere to international standards (such as FIPS 140-2 Level 3 or Common Criteria) which are often required in regulated industries. Using Procenne HSMs can help you meet compliance requirements for data protection, GDPR, eIDAS (for qualified signatures), PCI-DSS (for payment data), and others. These certifications mean the HSM design and implementation have been independently validated for security robustness.

By deploying Procenne’s ProCrypt HSMs and software, organizations achieve a high level of trust and assurance in their security systems. For example, a bank using Procenne HSMs can be confident that their customers’ PINs and financial data encryption keys are safe from exposure. A tech company can securely sign its software releases in the HSM, ensuring integrity for its users. And any business can encrypt sensitive database fields (like personal data) knowing that even if the database is compromised, the data remains unintelligible without access to the HSM.

ICM Connect, as a distributor of Procenne, provides both the technology and the expertise to integrate it into your infrastructure. We will work with your team to deploy HSMs (or connect to the Cloud HSM), configure CryptAway for seamless key management, and migrate existing keys if needed. We also offer training for your personnel on HSM operations and best practices for cryptographic key management. With Procenne’s advanced hardware security solutions in your arsenal, delivered and supported by ICM Connect, you can elevate your data protection to the highest standards – securing your critical assets now and for the future, and maintaining compliance with confidence.
