BCM5880 Cryptographic Module

Broadcom Corporation - FIPS 140 #1266

historicalLevel 3

The BCM5880 Cryptographic Module is a single-chip encased in hard opaque tamper evident IC packaging. The BCM5880 Cryptographic Module supports a variety of FIPS-validated cryptographic algorithms via a set of service API over a well-defined security boundary. It is developed as a reference design for OEMs to build FIPS140-2 compliant security systems.
