Description This cryptographic module has been developed by Thales Alenia Space and it has been implemented within the Ground Cryptographic Processor (GCP) placed on Earth and within the Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER) transponder unit. The aim of this cryptographic module is to enable the NASA to encrypt communications at the GCP, and decrypt and authenticate them at the transponder unit using AES-GCM. It is able to encrypt/decrypt and authenticate messages from 128 bytes to 1024 bytes of information in 128-bit blocks.

Automated analysis

Automated inference - use with caution

All attributes shown in this section (e.g., links between certificates, products, vendors, and known CVEs) are generated by automated heuristics and have not been reviewed by humans. These methods can produce false positives or false negatives and should not be treated as definitive without independent verification. This applies equally to the Cross-references section below. If you want to know more about how this data is computed and how reliable it is, see our documentation on automated analysis. If you believe any information here is inaccurate or harmful, please submit feedback.

No automatically derived data are available in this section.
