Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The SafeNet Luna K7+ Cryptographic Module is a high-assurance Hardware Security Module with a tamper-active physical enclosure, which secures sensitive data and critical applications by storing, protecting and managing cryptographic keys. It provides end users with industry-leading security and performance, and can quickly be embedded directly into servers and security appliances for FIPS 140-2 validated key security. The module meets compliance and audit needs for FIPS 140, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, eIDAS, GDPR, and is suitable for deployment in less controlled physical environments.
