Module Name
NITROX XL CN15xx-NFBE FIPS Cryptographic Modules
Historical Reason
RNG SP800-131A Revision 1 Transition
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode
Embodiment
Multi-chip embedded
Description
The Cavium Nitrox XL NFBE FIPS Cryptographic Modules are a cryptographic component of the Nitrox XL NFBE cryptographic acceleration boards that provide cryptographic key protection and acceleration for both asymmetric and symmetric encryption operations. The cryptographic module is contained in its own secure enclosure that provides physical resistance to tampering and zeroization of plaintext cryptographic material in the event the enclosure is opened.
