Description
The CN6000 Series is a high-speed hardware encryption platform that secures data over optical and twisted-pair Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks. Models validated are the CN6100 10G Ethernet operating at a line rate of 10Gb/s and the CN6040, Ethernet and FC selectable model operating at data rates up to 4Gb/s. Data privacy is provided by FIPS approved AES CFB and CTR algorithms. GCM is available on the CN6040 for applications that also demand authentication. Additionally TRANSEC transmission security capability can be used to remove patterns from network traffic to prevent traffic analysis.
Approved Algorithms
AES Certs. #2789, #2790, #2791 and #2793
CVL Cert. #242
DRBG Cert. #475
HMAC Cert. #1749
RSA Cert. #1460
SHS Cert. #2345
Triple-DES Cert. #1677
Other Algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength); RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength)
