Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

LOK-IT™ is a USB Flash drive with a multi-chip embedded cryptographic module architecture as defined by FIPS 140-2. It consists of an Initio 1861 USB controller, NAND Flash memory and a Microchip PIC16F688 security controller. The product supports 256 bit AES encryption of data stored in NAND Flash memory. The drive provides self-contained user authentication without the need for host computer applications. Two derivations of the product exist differing in the number of numeric buttons; the SDG003FM has 10 numeric buttons and the SDG004FP has 5 numeric buttons.
