Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The 3e-010F-A-2 and 3e-010F-C-2 Crypto Clients provide standard 802.11a/b/g wireless access along with enhanced protection through a variety of cryptographic features, providing a high level of security for wireless environments. In FIPS 140-2 mode (highly secure), encryption can be set for None, Static AES, Static 3DES, Dynamic Key Exchange and WPA2 Enterprise and Personal (AES-CCM). In non-FIPS mode, one can select None, Static AES, Static 3DES, Dynamic Key Exchange, Static WEP, WPA-Enterprise and Personal (TKIP or AES-CCM) and WPA2-Enterprise and Personal (TKIP or AES-CCM).
Security level exceptions
- EMI/EMC: Level 3
Approved algorithms (7)
Other algorithms
RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides between 112 and 150 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength)
Tested configurations
- Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional with SP4 and Microsoft Windows XP with SP2 (single-user mode)
