===Further advances=== In April 1971, [[Busicom]] began to manufacture ATMs based on the first commercial [[microprocessor]], the [[Intel 4004]]. Busicom manufactured these microprocessor-based automated teller machines for several buyers, with [[NCR Corporation]] as the main customer.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Aspray |first1=W. |s2cid=15782735 |title=The Intel 4004 microprocessor: what constituted invention? |journal=IEEE Annals of the History of Computing |date=1997 |volume=19 |issue=3 |pages=4–15 |doi=10.1109/85.601727 |issn=1058-6180}}</ref> [[Mohamed Atalla]] invented the first [[hardware security module]] (HSM),<ref name="Stiennon">{{cite web |last1=Stiennon |first1=Richard |title=Key Management a Fast Growing Space |url=https://securitycurrent.com/key-management-a-fast-growing-space/ |website=SecurityCurrent |publisher=IT-Harvest |access-date=21 August 2019 |date=17 June 2014}}</ref> dubbed the "Atalla Box", a security system which encrypted [[Personal identification number|PIN]] and ATM messages, and protected offline devices with an un-guessable PIN-generating key.<ref name="Lazo">{{cite book |last1=Bátiz-Lazo |first1=Bernardo |title=Cash and Dash: How ATMs and Computers Changed Banking |date=2018 |publisher=[[Oxford University Press]] |isbn=9780191085574 |pages=284 & 311 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=rWhiDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA284}}</ref> In March 1972, Atalla filed {{US patent|3938091}} for his PIN verification system, which included an encoded [[card reader]] and described a system that utilized [[encryption]] techniques to assure telephone link security while entering personal ID information that was transmitted to a remote location for verification.<ref name="nist">{{cite web |title=The Economic Impacts of NIST's Data Encryption Standard (DES) Program |url=https://www.nist.gov/sites/default/files/documents/2017/05/09/report01-2.pdf |website=[[National Institute of Standards and Technology]] |publisher=[[United States Department of Commerce]] |date=October 2001 |access-date=21 August 2019 |archive-date=30 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170830020822/https://www.nist.gov/sites/default/files/documents/2017/05/09/report01-2.pdf |url-status=dead }}</ref> He founded [[Atalla Corporation]] (now [[Utimaco Atalla]]) in 1972,<ref name="Langford">{{cite web |last1=Langford |first1=Susan |title=ATM Cash-out Attacks |url=https://h41382.www4.hpe.com/gfs-shared/20140318153228.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190821033406/https://h41382.www4.hpe.com/gfs-shared/20140318153228.pdf |archive-date=2019-08-21 |url-status=live |website=[[Hewlett Packard Enterprise]] |publisher=[[Hewlett-Packard]] |year=2013 |access-date=21 August 2019}}</ref> and commercially launched the "Atalla Box" in 1973.<ref name="Lazo"/> The product was released as the Identikey.
