<div><p> IBM<sup>®</sup> offers
cryptography solutions for customers who require a high level of security.</p>
<p>A comprehensive cryptography solution is an important part of a successful
security strategy. IBM offers a family of cryptographic hardware options
for protecting data and for securing transaction processing, as well as a
set of cryptographic services APIs that customers can use to customize their
programs.</p>
<p>You can make cryptography an integral part of your security solution by
installing cryptographic hardware in your system. To ensure that you understand
how cryptographic hardware works and how you can implement it in your system,
review these topics:</p>
