Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The Infraguard Processor Module (IPM) is a multi-chip, embedded, plug-in encryption module coated with an opaque, tamper evident material. The IPM is used to provide secure LAN and telephone modem communications for Advantor Systems' physical security systems. The IPM is embedded in multiple products, including an alarm panel and an alarm panel receiving product.
Approved algorithms (4)
Other algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength)
