Module description
The ACCE provides highly-secure cryptographic services and key storage. It is used in a range of AEP Networks and OEM products including the SureWare Keyper family. There are two versions available: Version 1.3G1 will power-down and zeroize the SMK if the module's temperature exceeds the specified operational temperature range. Version 1.3G2 will power-down and zeroize the SMK when the specified operational temperature is exceeded, and zeroize the IMK when the storage temperature is exceeded.
