Keeper Security Cryptographic Module
Keeper Security Cryptographic Module, from Keeper Security Inc., holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #3976 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 installed, initialized and configured as specified in the Security Policy Section 8 and operated in FIPS mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy.
