Module description
The Nexus FIPS140-2 Crypto Module is a single-board security module designed to conform to FIPS140-2 standards and primarily intended for use in P25 radio equipment. The module supports both KFD and KMF management implementations, including a dedicated 3-wire KFD interface. It includes a complete key storage and critical security material management function for TEK, KEK, UKEK, CKEK and KSKEK keys in non-volatile memory within the FIPS module, with protection from unauthorized disclosure or modification. The FIPS Module executes encryption and decryption of P25 Phase 1 voice and data tra
