A disclosed gaming machine provides methods and apparatus for securing a gaming system. Data files stored on the gaming machine and communications between the gaming machine and its components or external devices are protected using hardware cryptography devices placed at various locations within the gaming machine. Specifically, a hardware cryptography device is used to decrypt encrypted data files stored on the gaming machine or its components before the data files are executed. Additionally, a hardware cryptography device is used to encrypt data files before transmitting them to external devices across a communication path in the gaming machine network. Likewise, the hardware cryptography device is used to decrypt encrypted data files received from external devices.
