Module description
The Chrysalis-ITS® LUNA RA Secure Issuance HSM token is a hardware-based, multiple-chip standalone module which is a delta production of the Chrysalis-ITS® LUNA 2 token (certificate #56, dated 08/08/1999). Like the LUNA 2, the LUNA RA is in the form of a PC card “token” based on the PCMCIA standard. The LUNA RA token offers secure key distribution, fast key generation and secure key backup functionality to increase security and reduce operational overhead. The Luna RA token is integral to the secure issuance of keys to smart cards, cable modems, mobile phones and other PKI-enabled devices.
