Module Name
NCoded Cryptographic Mobile Module
Historical Reason
186-2 transition
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy. This validation entry is a non-security relevant modification to Cert. #1938.
Security Level Exceptions
- Physical Security: N/A
- Design Assurance: Level 3
- Mitigation of Other Attacks: N/A
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Description
NCoded Cryptographic Mobile (NCM) Module is a standards-based "Drop-in Compliance" cryptographic engine for mobile devices. The module delivers core cryptographic functions to the mobile devices and features robust algorithm support, including Suite B algorithms. NCM offloads functions for secure key management, data integrity, data at rest encryption, and secure communications to a trusted implementation.
Tested Configuration(s)
- Android 4.0 running on a Galaxy Nexus
- iOS 5.1 running on a iPad 3
- iOS 6 running on a iPad 3
- iOS 7 running on a iPad 3 (single-user mode)
Allowed Algorithms
EC 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);
