Vocera Cryptographic Module v3.0
Vocera Cryptographic Module v3.0, from Vocera Communications, Inc., holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #2619 at overall level 1. The validation is historical: agencies may keep the module in existing systems but not buy it new. Below are its validation history, algorithm certificates and security policy, drawn from the NIST CMVP entry.
Caveat: When operated in FIPS mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy.
