An external security module that extends VANTHRAX hardware protection to compatible legacy systems and connected devices that were never designed with it.
Overview
Critical environments often depend on equipment that cannot simply be replaced. The External VANTHRAX Security Chip brings hardware-anchored protection to compatible systems already in service.
EVSC is designed for the long operational lifetimes typical of infrastructure, industrial and institutional environments.
Capabilities
A dedicated secure element that brings hardware-anchored protection to hosts that lack it internally.
Designed for equipment that must stay in service for years, where replacement is impractical or impossible.
Gives the host a cryptographic identity that is difficult to clone, so it can be recognized and trusted on the network.
Attachment and removal of the module are visible to security policy, so its absence never goes unnoticed.
How it works
EVSC and its host establish trust through a short, explicit exchange before protection begins.
The module is connected to a compatible host, and its presence is registered.
EVSC presents its cryptographic identity to the host and to policy.
The module and its state are confirmed before it is trusted with any operation.
Keys and identity operations run inside EVSC; removal is visible to policy immediately.
Architecture
Trust begins in silicon.
EVSC operates within the VANTHRAX five-layer architecture at Hardware Integrity. A verified foundation is established before any software runs. Keys, identity and boot integrity are anchored in dedicated hardware that higher layers can rely on.
Deployment
VANTHRAX does not publish performance figures, certifications or compatibility lists on this website. Detailed technical information is provided directly, under briefing.
