Dell BSAFE™ Crypto Module for C
Dell Australia Pty Limited, BSAFE Product Team - FIPS 140 #5443
Dell BSAFE™ Crypto Module for C software library is designed for developers to incorporate FIPS 140-3 approved cryptography into C-based products. BSAFE™ Crypto Module security software helps protect sensitive data as it is stored, using strong encryption techniques that ease integration with existing data models. Using the capabilities of BSAFE™ Crypto Module software in applications helps provide a persistent level of protection for data, lessening the risk of internal, as well as external, compromise.

- Caveat
- When operated in approved mode. When installed, initialized and configured as specified in Section 11.1 of the Security Policy. The module generates SSPs (e.g., keys) whose strengths are modified by available entropy. No assurance of minimum security of SSPs (e.g., keys, bit strings) that are externally loaded, or of SSPs established with externally loaded SSPs
