Module description
The Check Point Cryptographic Library is a firmware module that provides cryptographic services to Check Point products. The module provides a number of NIST validated cryptographic algorithms for services such as IPSec and TLS. The module provides applications with a library interface that enables them to access the various cryptographic algorithm functions supplied by the module. For the purposes of FIPS 140-2 testing, the module was evaluated running on the Check Point 12400 appliance.
