VirtuCrypt, Futurex's cloud hardware security module (HSM) platform, is an award-winning provider of enterprise-class cloud security services.
Using Futurex's FIPS 140-2 Level 3 and PCI HSM validated technology, VirtuCrypt cloud payment HSMs can perform cryptographic operations required for transaction acquiring. This includes functions related to PIN translation and verification, EMV card validation, CVV validation, Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE), and all related key management functions.
Financial acquiring focuses on the steps carried out between merchants and banks for processing credit and debit transactions, either through traditional card-based transactions or mobile payments. This service is designed for financial services organizations such as banks, credit unions, retailers, transaction processors, payment application providers, and FinTechs.
Multiple throughput rates, SLAs, and redundancy options are available. Contact Futurex for more details at info@futurex.com.
Highlights
PCI-HSM and FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validated cloud payment HSM
SaaS validated through PCI-DSS, PCI-PIN, and PCI-P2PE audits
Quickly deploy cloud payment HSMs for enterprise use cases
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on the duration and terms of your contract with the vendor. This entitles you to a specified quantity of use for the contract duration. If you choose not to renew or replace your contract before it ends, access to these entitlements will expire.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
This listing bills through annual contracts, priced per host. You choose a hosted payment HSM for transaction acquiring. Three core HSM options cover different throughput needs: a low-throughput unit, a standard unit, and one rated at 1,000 TPS. Two optional VirtuCrypt Access Point (VAP) options connect HSMs across regions within a cloud provider, with a standard and a high-speed version. A Build Your Own option lets you set a custom configuration for factors like SLA, throughput, high availability, or bare metal. You add VAPs and custom builds to the HSM you select.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one host cover, and how do I add regional access points to it?
Each host is one hosted payment HSM instance backed by validated hardware. You pay per host per year. A VirtuCrypt Access Point (VAP) lets one set of HSMs serve applications across multiple regions within a cloud provider. You buy VAPs separately, per region, and pair them with your chosen HSM.
How do the three core HSM options differ for transaction acquiring?
All three run acquiring workflows like PIN verification, EMV validation, CVV checks, and key management. They differ by throughput. One targets low-throughput use, one is a standard acquiring unit, and one is rated at 1,000 transactions per second (TPS). Pick the option that matches your expected transaction volume.
When would I choose Build Your Own Cloud HSM instead of a fixed option?
Choose Build Your Own when the fixed options do not fit your requirements. It supports custom settings for service level agreement (SLA), throughput, high availability, or bare metal. Redundancy choices range from a single HSM to two active units at one site, or four across two sites.
