Description
RA8M1 Security Management Module is a hardware cryptographic module certified at FIPS 140-3 Security Level 2. RA8M1 is general-purpose microcontroller designed for industrial, IOT, and infrastructure applications, embedded with robust security features. This module is provided as a reference for developing FIPS 140-3-compliant modules using the RA8M1. By referring to the design of this module, it becomes easier to address FIPS requirements when developing cryptographic modules using the RA8M1 in customer environments.
