Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 NSS Cryptographic Module

Certificate details

Certificate ID #4774
Status historical
Historical reason Moved to historical list due to sunsetting
Validation dates 21.08.2024
Standard FIPS 140-3
Security level 1
Type Software
Embodiment Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Caveat Interim validation. When operated in approved mode and installed, initialized and configured as specified in section 11 of the Security Policy. The module generates SSPs (e.g., keys) whose strengths are modified by available entropy.
Exceptions
  • Physical security: N/A
  • Non-invasive security: N/A
Description Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of open source C libraries designed to support cross-platform development of security-enabled applications. NSS implements major Internet security standards. NSS is available free of charge under a variety of open source compatible licenses. See http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/.

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.
