HSM - Hardware Secure Module

The goal of this package is to provide a secure, consistent, and scalable communication layer between applications using NodeJS technology and the HSM Dinamo cryptographic hardware manufactured by Dinamo Networks. This layer provides primitive cryptographic functions (signature, encryption) as well as functions from the HSM's specialized modules: Blockchain, XML signing for NFe (electronic invoice), SPB (Brazilian Payment System), and EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer).

APIs

Details of the package's APIs are available in the Javascript HSM API Documentation.

Installation

npm i @dinamonetworks/hsm-dinamo

For APIs that operate functions with smart cards, a complete installation of the HSM software is required, along with the Remote option, as well as a certified USB reader and compatible cards.

Settings

Information about logging configuration is available on the Documentation Setup Page.

Use

// Imports Dinamo HSM APIs
const { hsm } = require("@dinamonetworks/hsm-dinamo");

// Defines the connection parameters to the HSM.
const options = {
  host: "127.0.0.1",
  authUsernamePassword: {
    username: "master",
    password: "12345678",
  },
};

// You can also connect using environment variables:
// HSM_HOST - HSM IP Address
// HSM_PORT - HSM Port (tcp 4433)
// HSM_USERNAME - HSM user name
// HSM_PASSWORD - HSM user password credential

async function hsmConnect() {
  // Connect to HSM
  const conn = await hsm.connect(options);

  // Connection established
  console.log("HSM connected");

  // Disconnect from HSM
  await conn.disconnect();
}

// Execute the hsmConnect function.
hsmConnect();
