Hughes Crypto Kernel - Firmware

Certificate #1485

Webpage information ?

Status	historical
Historical reason	RNG SP800-131A Revision 1 Transition
Validation dates	11.01.2011
Standard	FIPS 140-2
Security level	1
Type	Firmware
Embodiment	Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Caveat	When operated in FIPS mode
Exceptions	Tested: Hughes HX280 with the VxWorks 5.4 operating system
Description	The Hughes Crypto Kernel (HCK) is a FIPS 140-2 Level 1 cryptographic module available for the Hughes HN and HX systems. The HCK enables the use of end-to-end bidirectional encryption between a remote site and the enterprise data center, while still enabling the use of all Hughes satellite acceleration features, as well as Hughes' advanced routing, prioritization and access control capabilities. The HCK uses AES 256 bit encryption to encrypt user traffic, uses IKE to dynamically generate session keys used for encryption, and ensures message authentication and integrity using HMAC-SHA-256.
Version (Firmware)	3.1.0.4
Vendor	Hughes Network Systems, LLC
References	This certificate's webpage directly references 0 certificates, transitively this expands into 0 certificates.
