SUSE Linux Enterprise Libgcrypt Cryptographic Module
Caveat: When operated in approved mode and installed, initialized and configured as specified in Section 11 of the Security Policy. No assurance of minimum security of SSPs (e.g., keys, bit strings) that are externally loaded, or of SSPs established with externally loaded SSPs. The module generates SSPs (e.g., keys) whose strengths are modified by available entropy.
