Module Name
ISC Cryptographic Development Kit (CDK)
Validation Dates
01/05/2018;08/15/2018
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. 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
The CDK is a software module. The physical embodiment of the computer hardware on which it runs is a "multi-chip standalone module" in FIPS 140-2 terminology. The "physical cryptographic boundary" is defined to be the entire computer on which the CDK software runs. As a software module, the "logical boundary" contains the software modules that comprise the CDK shared link library.
