Chrysalis-ITS K3 Cryptographic Engine

SafeNet, Inc. - FIPS 140 #436

historicalLevel 2

The K3 Chrysalis-ITS Cryptographic Engine is a hardware cryptographic module in the form of a PCI card that resides within a secured generalpurpose computing appliance. It is contained in its own secure enclosure that provides physical resistance to tampering and zeroization in the event the enclosure is opened. The cryptographic boundary of the module is defined to encompass all components inside the secure enclosure on the PCI card.
