Fireblocks, an enterprise platform, announced an expanded collaboration with Thales, a cybersecurity provider of Luna Hardware Security Modules (HSMs), on 10 February 2026 to deliver institutional-grade digital asset security architecture for financial institutions.

The collaboration integrates Fireblocks’ digital asset platform with Thales’ Luna HSMs, enabling institutions to extend their existing certified hardware infrastructure into digital asset operations without having to re-architect security models.

Adam Levine, SVP, Head of Corporate Development and Partnerships at Fireblocks, shared,

“By expanding our partnership with Thales, we’re enabling the deployment of digital asset services using customer-owned, certified hardware they already trust – without compromising on control, compliance, or operational integrity.”

Todd Moore, Vice President, Data Security Product at Thales, added,

“Combined with Fireblocks, we help institutions reduce key-exposure risk, strengthen governance, and move digital value with confidence across high-value digital ecosystems at scale.”

The architecture supports a range of institutional use cases, including custody, trading, tokenization, and on-chain settlement, while integrating with existing security, governance, and audit processes.

This control is operationalised through Fireblocks KeyLink, which ensures private keys or key shares are generated, stored, and operated entirely within customer-owned Luna HSMs.

All cryptographic operations are performed inside institution-controlled infrastructure. Fireblocks cannot unilaterally sign transactions or move assets. Instead, the platform provides policy enforcement, orchestration, and enterprise-grade governance across hot, warm, and cold operating models.
