Nitrox XL NFB FIPS Cryptographic Modules
Cavium Networks - FIPS 140 #871
The Nitrox XL NFB FIPS Cryptographic Module is a cryptographic module integrated into a PCI card that provides cryptographic key protection and acceleration for both asymmetric and symmetric encryption operations. It is contained in its own secure enclosure that provides physical resistance to tampering and zeroization of plaintext cryptographic material in the event the enclosure is opened.
