Veritas Cryptographic Module for Java
Veritas Cryptographic Module for Java, from Veritas Technologies LLC, holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #3626 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. No assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys. This validation entry is a non-security relevant modification to Cert. #3080.
