Just because it's more secure than network / file doesn't mean it's secure. That's why we have smartcards / HSMs.

- raverbashing 13y agoSmartcards are vulnerable as well and there has been successful attacks towards some smartcards (google it) And not every system has an HSM available
- ra 13y agoSure but smartcards and HSMs are slow and in a properly managed environment are much safer than memory. Whether or not the OP has an HSM is moot. The OP said, "I want to design and implement a solution as secure as it can be" ... and that means (among many other things) keys on HSM.
