Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The Datacryptor® 1 Gig Ethernet and 10 Gig Ethernet are rack-mountable multi-chip standalone cryptographic modules which facilitate secure data transmission across public Ethernet Layer 2 networks. The 1 Gig and 10 Gig units use an standard SFP/XFP optical transceivers for their host and network connections. The Datacryptor® offers user verification services via ECDSA enabled X.509 v.3 certificates, key management based on a Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman key agreement scheme, and AES encryption of data passing over public networks.
