Module Name
Proofpoint Security Library
Historical Reason
RNG SP800-131A Revision 1 Transition
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy.
Security Level Exceptions
Embodiment
Multi-chip standalone
Description
The module is a Java language cryptographic component to be used by the various Proofpoint security products. The module is designed to meet Level 1 requirements of FIPS 140-2 standard. The module is a cryptographic library that provides variety of cryptographic services (both approved as well as non-approved). The module can be executed on any general-purpose PC and operating system capable of running JRE 1.6 or later.
Tested Configuration(s)
- Dell Latitude E6400 w/ Cent OS 5 running JRE 1.6 (single-user mode)
Other Algorithms
AES RNG; 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); DSA (non-compliant); Extended Secure Remote Password; Secure Remote Password; RC2; Triple-DES (non-compliant)
