Protiva PIV Applet v1.55 on Protiva TOP DM Card

Gemalto - FIPS 140 #691

historicalLevel 2

This module is based on a Java platform (GemCombiXpresso R4 E72 PK ) with 72K EEPROM memory and on the SafesITe FIPS201 applet loaded on the Java Card platform. The Cryptographic Module provides dual interfaces (i.e. contact and contact-less) where the same security level is achieved. The module has on board the following FIPS approved security functions used specifically by the SafesITe FIPS201 applet :P-RNG, Triple DES, SHA-1, RSA algorithms up to 2048 bits key length, and X9.31 RSA On Board Key generation up to 2048 bits long. The module conforms to Java Card 2.1.1, Global Platform 2.1.1, NITS SP-800-73-1, and is very well suited for US Government and Federal projects where FIPS-201, PIV-II compliance is required.
