Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The EXP1000 Hardware Security Module (HSM) is a multi-chip embedded cryptographic module that provides secure data storage and crypto-processing functionality. The module is assembled from production quality components. All sensitive components of the module are physically protected by a tamper resistant, responsive, and evident casing where all cryptographic operations are performed.
