Entrust Security Kernel Version 7.0
Entrust, Inc. - FIPS 140 #308
The Kernel is a C++ class library of cryptographic functions bound together by a common object-oriented Application Programming Interface (API). Depending on the configuration and runtime environment of the Kernel, the algorithms may be implemented in software, hardware, or a combination of both. The industry standard Cryptoki API, as described in PKCS #11, is used as the internal interface to hardware-based cryptographic tokens. Decisions are made at runtime whether to perform operations via cryptoki or in software, based on a table that records the crypto capabilities of particular hardware devices. This table is built up at runtime by querying the actual token through Cryptoki.
