Module Name
Arista EOS Crypto Module v1.0
Validation Dates
05/15/2017;01/28/2019;07/10/2020
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. No assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy
Security Level Exceptions
- Physical Security: N/A
- Mitigation of Other Attacks: N/A
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Description
Arista’s crypto library is a comprehensive suite of FIPS Approved algorithms. Many key sizes and modes have been implemented to allow flexibility and efficiency.
