Embodiment
Multi-chip standalone
Description
The Cloakware Security Kernel from Cloakware, Inc. is a module contained in a single library designed to provide cryptographic functionality within calling applications operating on multi-chip standard server platforms. This single library is linked at run-time to a C/C++ library, which can be called by host applications to provide cryptographic services. This library can also be dynamically loaded at runtime by a Java application running within a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) via Java Native Interface (JNI), providing cryptographic services to the Java application.
Tested Configuration(s)
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) AS 5.0
- Solaris 10
- Windows Server 2008 (single-user mode)
Other Algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement, key establishment methodology provides between 112 and 256 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength); RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides between 112 and 256 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength)
