Module Name
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2 - NSS Cryptographic Module
Validation Dates
07/03/2018
Caveat
When operated in FIPS Mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy
Security Level Exceptions
- Roles, Services, and Authentication: Level 2
- Physical Security: N/A
- Design Assurance: Level 2
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
