Description
The SCA-6000 is a high performance hardware security module for Sun SPARC, x86, x64 platforms in a low-profile, short PCI-E (X8) card. Supported on Linux and Solaris-10, it provides on-board cryptographic acceleration hardware and key store. It supports remote management with serial and USB ports for local administration. It enhances performance by off-loading compute intensive cryptographic calculations, accelerating IPsec and SSL processing and performs many financial service functions. The SCA6000 performs primary cryptographic functions for the Sun KMS 2.X Key Management System.
Other Algorithms
AES (Cert. #2312, key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides between 128 and 160 bits of encryption strength); 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 112 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength); DES; MD5; HMAC-MD5; RC2
