Module Name
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server GnuTLS Cryptographic Module
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy
Security Level Exceptions
- Physical Security: N/A
- Mitigation of Other Attacks: N/A
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Description
GnuTLS is a secure communications library implementing the TLS protocol. It provides a simple C language application programming interface to access the secure communications protocols as well as APIs to parse and write X.509, PKCS#12, and other required structures which is shipped with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server.
