Following the directions set by the Implementation Act of the eIDAS Regulation, Entrust has developed a SAM to improve the security of remote signing deployments. It’s installed together with our nShield Connect XC HSM to form a fully compliant QSCD. The Entrust SAM ensures that the signer has sole control of signing operations.
