Module description
NetApp CryptoMod is a software cryptographic module whose purpose is to provide encryption/decryption services for NetApp’s ONTAP Operating System (OS) kernel. The CryptoMod module makes use of the AES-NI instruction set in Intel processors. Since CryptoMod can support non-PAA implementations as well as PAA implementations of the pertinent cryptographic algorithms, CryptoMod is designated as a software-only cryptographic module.
