Certificate #680

Webpage information ?

Status	historical
Historical reason	RNG SP800-131A Revision 1 Transition
Validation dates	19.06.2006
Standard	FIPS 140-2
Security level	3
Type	Hardware
Embodiment	Multi-Chip Embedded
Caveat	When operated in FIPS mode and initialized to Overall Level 3 per Security Policy
Description	The nCipher modules: nCipher 800 PCI, nCipher 1600 PCI, nCipher 1600 PCI for NetHSM family of secure e-commerce HSM's are multi-tasking hardware modules that is optimized for performing modular arithmetic on very large integers. The nCipher modules are FIPS 140-2 level 3 embedded devices. The units are identical in operation and only vary in the processing speed.
