Systems and methods for creating fingerprints for encryption devices are described herein. In various embodiments, the system includes an encryption device operatively connected to a device management system. According to particular embodiments, the device management system: 1) receives a first payload from the encryption device, the first payload including data in a particular format; 2) creates a fingerprint for the encryption device, the fingerprint including a section format for each of one or more distinct sections of the particular format; 3) storing a record of the fingerprint for the encryption device and the unique identifier at the at least one database; and 4) comparing a format of each subsequent payload received from the encryption device to the fingerprint for the device to determine whether the device has been compromised.
