You might also want to check out the following options,

NCipher
www.ncipher.com

Okiok Data
www.okiok.com/rix.htm

Rainbow Technologies
isg.rainbow.com

Chrysalis-ITS
www.chrysalis-its.com

Of these, the only one that supports symmetric encryption (DES, 3DES and
others) is the Okiok Data Integrated Cryptographic Processor. The
others state support of PKCS#11 and some SET, SSL and IPSec support.
