Cryptographic Module Validation Program CMVP

Certificate #2170

Details

Module Name
DragonWave® Secure Cryptographic Module
Standard
FIPS 140-2
Status
Historical
 Historical Reason
RNG SP800-131A Revision 1 Transition
Overall Level
1
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy. No assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys
Security Level Exceptions
  • Tested: Horizon Quantum (PN 60-000471-03) and Horizon Compact+ (PN CP-HP-18-B1-S-X-010-N-00-R1) with QNX Neutrino Real-Time Operating System Version 6.4.1
Module Type
Firmware-Hybrid
Embodiment
Multi-chip standalone
Description
The DragonWave® Secure Cryptographic Module is a hybrid cryptographic module consisting of firmware and hardware. The hardware portion of the module provides AES for bulk data encryption between two Horizon Compact+ or Horizon Quantum peer devices in a radio link, while the firmware provides cryptographic state management as well as secure peer-to-peer management communications over a protected TLS tunnel.
Approved Algorithms
AES Certs. #2706, #2707, #2708 and #2709
CVL Certs. #164 and #165
HMAC Certs. #1687 and #1688
RNG Certs. #1256 and #1257
RSA Certs. #1404 and #1405
SHS Certs. #2273 and #2274
Triple-DES Certs. #1625 and #1626
Other Algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength); RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides between 112 and 150 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less then 112 bits of encryption strength); DSA (non compliant); MD5; SHA-[224, 384 and 512] (non-compliant); HMAC-SHA-[224, 256, 384 and 512] (non-compliant); RSA (non-compliant); AES (non-compliant); Triple-DES (non-compliant)
Hardware Versions
Horizon® Quantum (PN: 74-000320) and Horizon® Compact+ (PN: 74-000320) with Tamper Evident Seal (PN: 65-000185-01-01)
Firmware Versions
1.2.5 (Compact+) and 1.3 (Quantum)
