Module Name
Oracle Linux 8 NSS Cryptographic Module
Historical Reason
Moved to historical list due to sunsetting
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy
Security Level Exceptions
- Roles, Services, and Authentication: Level 2
- Physical Security: N/A
- Design Assurance: Level 3
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
