What's New in the Current Release

The following are features or highlights of SafeNet HSM release 6.2.2.

HA Auto-Reconnect

The HA feature now includes the ability of the Client to reconnect and resume application operation, without intervention, after completely losing contact with the HA group of HSMs. Context is retained, and token object states are preserved. Session resumption and re-login are hands-free. See HA Auto-Reconnect  

[Requires SafeNet HSM Client 6.2.2; no firmware dependency]

HA Failover withstands member deactivation and reconnects on activation of member partition

The following scenarios are addressed in 6.2.2 Client:

When an application starts up the HA system ensures that the partition is activated.

If a member has failed, during recovery the system checks that the partition is activated and confirms activation before the member is added back to the group.

When a new member is being added to an HA group, the system checks whether or not the new member partition is activated and subsequently ensures activation before the member is successfully added to the HA group.

Network HSM gets OpenSSL Upgrade

The SafeNet Network HSM receives enhanced OpenSSL to address the vulnerability described in CVE-2016-6304.

[Requires SafeNet Network HSM appliance software version 6.2.2; no client or firmware dependency]
