Module Name
Apple iOS CoreCrypto Module, v4.0
Historical Reason
Moved to historical list due to sunsetting
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy
Module Type
Software-Hybrid
Embodiment
Multi-chip standalone
Description
The Apple iOS CoreCrypto Module is a software cryptographic module running on a multi-chip standalone mobile device and provides services intended to protect data in transit and at rest.
