Module Name
RSA BSAFE® Crypto-C Micro Edition
Historical Reason
Moved to historical list due to sunsetting
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. When entropy is externally loaded, no assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys
Security Level Exceptions
- Cryptographic Module Specification: Level 3
- Physical Security: N/A
- Design Assurance: Level 3
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Description
The Crypto-C Micro Edition (ME) Module is RSA's cryptographic library designed for securing mobile devices like wireless phones and personal digital assistants. It contains assembly-level optimizations on key wireless processors. Its functionality includes a wide range of data encryption and signing algorithms, including Triple-DES, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm, the RSA Public Key Cryptosystem, the DSA government signature algorithm, MD5 and SHA1 message digest routines, and more.
Tested Configuration(s)
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP3 on VMWare ESXi 6.0.0 running on a Dell R630 with Intel Xeon E5-2620 with PAA (64-bit)
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP3 on VMWare ESXi 6.0.0 running on a Dell R630 with Intel Xeon E5-2620 without PAA (64-bit) (single-user mode)
