Certificate details

Certificate ID #1891
Status historical
Historical reason RNG SP800-131A Revision 1 Transition
Validation dates 06.09.2013 , 09.01.2015
Standard FIPS 140-2
Security level 1
Type Software
Embodiment Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Caveat When operated in FIPS mode with modules Microsoft Windows 8, Microsoft Windows Server 2012, Microsoft Windows RT, Microsoft Surface Windows RT, Microsoft Surface Windows 8 Pro, and Microsoft Windows Phone 8 Boot Manager validated to FIPS 140-2 under Cert. #1895 operating in FIPS mode, and Microsoft Windows 8, Microsoft Windows Server 2012, Microsoft Windows RT, Microsoft Surface Windows RT, Microsoft Surface Windows 8 Pro, and Microsoft Windows Phone 8 BitLocker® Windows OS Loader (WINLOAD) validated to FIPS 140-2 under Cert. #1896 operating in FIPS mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy.
Exceptions
  • Design Assurance: Level 2
Description Kernel Mode Cryptographic Primitives Library (CNG.SYS) runs as a kernel mode export driver, and provides cryptographic services, through their documented interfaces, to Windows kernel components. It supports several cryptographic algorithms accessible via a FIPS function table request IRP (I/O request packet). This cryptographic module also maintains FIPS 140-2 validation compliance (according to FIPS 140-2 PUB Implementation Guidance G.5) on Microsoft Windows 8, Microsoft Windows 8 Pro, and Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Datacenter.

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.
