AMERICA2 (PSD)
Data-Pac Mailing Systems Corp. - FIPS 140 #762
The AMERICA2 (PSD) is a cryptographically secure, tamper proof device capable of storing customer postal credit and then dispensing valid postal indicia. As an embedded multi-chip Cryptographic Device, the AMERICA2 is enclosed within a tamper-response envelope that prevents all physically invasive attacks while still ensuring the retention of all postal data. The AMERICA2 (PSD) generates HMAC indicia as part of Data-Pac's IBI Light Symmetric postage system, which obviates the need for the digital signature used in traditional IBI franking. Data-Pac embeds the AMERICA2 into its line of Digit
