HSM LAN

DINAMO Super Cloud allows users of DINAMO HSMs to integrate their equipment with cloud services such as remote monitoring and intelligent certificate management.

To link your HSM to your account, make sure your firmware version is 5.0.11.0 or higher.

To link the first HSM, follow these steps:

  1. Log in with your portal account and access the HSM LAN item in the navigation menu.
  2. Click on create and choose a tag to identify the HSM.
  3. Copy the generated link key.
  4. Using the command line console or the HTTP console, complete the linking process using the copied key.

Certificate Management

With your HSM linked, you can block a certificate present on the device, thus preventing signatures with the certificate's private key. To block a certificate on an HSM, select the HSM's "Block certificates" action. On the next page, click on "Block certificate". In the dialog that opens, choose the certificate file and an identification tag for it.

If you want to block a certificate that is already in your account, use the navigation menu to go to the Certificates and keys page, select the "Block" action on the certificate and check the HSM where the block should take place.

To track the use of certificates present in your HSM you need to import them into your account, for more details see the topic certificate reporting.

Remote log monitoring

The logs of a linked HSM can be monitored in real time, directly through the portal. This is done securely via a TLS channel between the HSM and DINAMO Super Cloud. You can choose to monitor an HSM by selecting the "Event monitoring" action. On the next page, click on the play button to start monitoring. If you want to monitor all the HSMs linked to your account, change the selector at the top to "All HSMs".
