Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The DEP/PCI (a PCI adapter board) is a hardware cryptographic module, also known as a hardware security module (HSM). Its boot software together with its cryptographic coprocessor implements different cryptographic algorithms which are used for secure key entry, secure application loading and secure boot firmware update. The alarm firmware implements the tamper detection and tamper responsive logic.
