Cryptographic Module Validation Program CMVP

Certificate #4600

Details

Module Name
HYCU Cryptographic Library Module
Standard
FIPS 140-2
Status
Active
Sunset Date
8/22/2024
Overall Level
1
Caveat
When installed, initialized and configured as specified in the Security Policy Section 8 and 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. #3514
Security Level Exceptions
  • Physical Security: N/A
Module Type
Software
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Description
The HYCU Cryptographic Library Module is a comprehensive suite of FIPS Approved algorithms implemented in pure Java. All key sizes and modes have been implemented to allow flexibility and efficiency, and additional algorithms are available in non-approved operation as well.
