ASI-HSM AHX5 KNET Cryptographic Module
KRYPTUS S.A. - FIPS 140 #3614
The module exists to provide cryptographic services to applications running on behalf of its users which communicate with it via a standard Ethernet interface using IP protocols. In order to provide these services, the module also requires a power supply. The module is usually sold embedded within a stand-alone network appliance. That appliance is typically used in large-scale cloud infrastructures, where ease of remote configuration and operation is required.

Algorithm families of the CAVP certificates listed for this module, plus post-quantum algorithms named in its documents.
CAVP algorithm certificates (1)
- DRBG 349
Each approved algorithm in a FIPS 140-3 module needs its own NIST CAVP certificate. Older numeric certificates link to their NIST page; ACVP certificates (A1234) can be looked up in the CAVP validation search.
CVEs that may affect this product
sec-certs has not matched any CVE to this certificate. That is not proof the product is unaffected.
Related CVEs and certificate references are automated matches by sec-certs, not reviewed by humans: treat them as "may be affected" and verify before acting.
