Apache Tomcat and Utimaco HSMs for Secure and Efficient Web Applications
Utimaco helped secure Apache Tomcat web applications by integrating its CryptoServer Hardware Security Module (HSM) to generate, store, and protect private SSL keys within a tamper-proof, FIPS 140-2 certified environment. The HSM offloads cryptographic operations from the web server, enhancing performance while ensuring key confidentiality and lifecycle management. This integration supports Java-based server configurations using the PKCS#11 interface, enabling seamless, secure SSL/TLS setup for robust, scalable web application security.
