Module Name
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server libgcrypt Cryptographic Module
Historical Reason
Moved to historical list due to sunsetting
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode and installed, initialized and configured as specified in section 9 of the Security Policy. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy.
Security Level Exceptions
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
