BlackBerry 850/857and BlackBerry 950/957Cryptographic Kernel

Certificate #137

Webpage information

Status historical
Historical reason Validation Sunsetting Policy - FIPS 140-1 Certificate
Validation dates 01.03.2001 , 03.06.2002 , 24.08.2005
Standard FIPS 140-1
Security level 1
Type Firmware
Embodiment Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Caveat When operated in FIPS mode
Description The BlackBerry crypto firmware v2.1, common to both the BlackBerry 850/857 and the BlackBerry 950/957, securely compresses and encrypts messages with Triple-DES. Following this procedure, the ciphertext is transmitted over the Internet to the recipient mail server. Upon receiving the message, the mail server decrypts and decompresses the ciphertext back to the original plaintext. The BlackBerry crypto firmware is messaging-system independent.
Version (Firmware) 2.1
Vendor Research In Motion Ltd.
