Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

The SafeNet™ SafeEnterprise™ ATM Encryptor provides data privacy and access control for connections between vulnerable public and private ATM networks. It employs FIPS approved DES or Triple-DES algorithms and, with the flexibility to choose the desired interface module, can be deployed in T1, E1, T3, E3, OC3c and OC12c networks. The SafeNet™ SafeEnterprise™ ATM Encryptor can be centrally controlled or managed across multiple remote stations using SafeNet™ SafeEnterprise™ Security Management Center, an SNMP-based security management system.
