Module Name
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2 Openswan Cryptographic Module
Historical Reason
Moved to historical list due to sunsetting
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode and when obtained, installed, and initialized as assumed by the Crypto Officer role and specified in Section 9 of the provided Security Policy. This module contains the embedded Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2 OpenSSL Cryptographic Module validated to FIPS 140-2 under Cert. #1758 operating in FIPS mode and the Network Security Services (NSS) Cryptographic Module validated to FIPS 140-2 under Cert. #1837 operating in FIPS mode. Section 1 of the provided Security Policy specifies the precise RPM files containing this module. The integrity of the RPMs are verified during the installation and the Crypto officer shall not install the RPM files if the RPM tool indicates an integrity error. Any deviation from the specified verification, installation and initialization procedures will result in a non FIPS 140-2 compliant module. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy
Embodiment
Multi-chip standalone
Description
The Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2 OpenSwan Cryptographic Module is a software only cryptographic module that provides the IKE protocol version 1 and version 2 key agreement services required for IPSec.
Tested Configuration(s)
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2 (single-user mode)
Other Algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength); RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides between 112 bits and 150 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength); RC2; RC4; DES; Seed; CAMELLIA; MD2; MD5
