I was very recently looking into physically secure computing solutions, and the "industry standard" seems to be the SafeNet Network HSM, formerly Luna SA Network-Attached HSM (for example, it's what Amazon uses for their CloudHSM service: https://aws.amazon.com/cloudhsm/), which costs like $30,000. With that number in mind, the ORWL price of $700 is quite enticing!

Yes, HSMs are very expensive and after talking to a few people in this industry we got the impression, some of the ORWL features are not present in HSMs. Like the ability to Geo-lock the device using the key (mounted in the ceiling). Waling away with the device will render it useless as the keyFOB is missing.
