Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
SCCOS is a state-of-the-art operating system that offers wide range of authentication services together with the highest levels of security. It offers powerful implementaions for public and secret key encryption supporting RSA, DSA, Diffie-Hellman, SHA-1, Triple-DES, and AES.
Security level exceptions
- Roles, Services, and Authentication: Level 3
- Physical Security: Level 3
- EMI/EMC: Level 3
- Design Assurance: Level 3
Approved algorithms (6)
Other algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength); RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength); DSA (non-compliant)
