Description
The Dallas Semiconductor 1955 Java-Powered Cryptographic iButton, when operated in FIPS mode, provides SHA-1 hashing, identity-based challenge-response authentication, statistical random number generator tests, and a SHA-1 known answer test. When not operated in FIPS mode, the device provides more cryptographic services such as a high-speed math accelerator for 1024-bit public key cryptography. The module's single silicon chip is encased in a stainless steel button which is rugged enough to withstand harsh outdoor environments.
