Description
Q1 Labs Cryptographic Security Kernel is multi-algorithm library providing general-purpose cryptographic services. The purpose of the module is to provide a single API for cryptographic functionality that can provide centralized control over FIPS-Approved mode status, provide availability of only FIPS-Approved algorithms or vendor-affirmed implementations of non FIPS-Approved algorithms, and provide for centralized logging and reporting of the cryptographic engine.
Tested Configuration(s)
  • CentOS 5.7 (single-user mode)
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5.7
Approved Algorithms
AES Cert. #1907
HMAC Cert. #1144
RNG Cert. #1001
RSA Cert. #978
SHS Cert. #1674
Triple-DES Cert. #1239
Other Algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 80 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant); MD5, RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides between 112 and 150 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength)
