Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The TANDBERG MXP Codec is the firmware installed on nineteen various TANDBERG codec servers supporting a full line of videoconferencing systems designed for medium-to-large groups, as well as individual desktops. The firmware provides secure video conferencing through encryption and authentication for point-to-point calls and multipoint calls with the speed of up to 768 kbps.
Security level exceptions
- Tested: TANDBERG 6000 MXP server running Nucleus RTOS version 1.13.5 (PowerPC Freescale MPC8270), pSOS version 254 (video processor Phillips PNX1500) and DSP/BIOS version 5.20.05 (audio processor TI6713)
Approved algorithms (7)
Other algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 80 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant); RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides between 112 and 150 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength)
