AWS CloudHSM

Dedicated, single-tenant FIPS 140-2 Level 3 hardware security module for regulated key-management requirements. No true open-source equivalent — actual hardware HSM certification can't be replicated in software. SoftHSM (open source) provides a software-emulated PKCS#11 HSM interface useful for development/testing, and HashiCorp Vault covers software-based key management with dynamic secrets, but neither meets Level 3 hardware compliance requirements.
