nCipher nShield Family of Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) Firmware Version 2.33.60 (hereafter referred to as nShield HSM Firmware), was the subject of a Common Criteria evaluation performed by the Common Criteria Evaluation Facility at DOMUS IT Security Laboratory located in Ottawa, Ontario. The evaluation was completed in March 2009.
The evaluation of nShield HSM Firmware determined that this Information Technology (IT) product can be trusted, at an assurance level of EAL 4 augmented with ALC_FLR.1, to conform to the requirements of the associated security target.
nShield HSM Firmware provides protection for the cryptographic keys used within computing platforms, managing cryptographic key generation, archiving, recovery and destruction.
nShield HSM Firmware incorporates FIPS PUB 140-2 validated cryptography.
The scope of this evaluation is defined by the security target, which identifies assumptions made during the evaluation, the intended environment for nShield HSM Firmware, the IT security requirements to be met, and the level of confidence (evaluation assurance level) to which it is asserted that nShield HSM Firmware satisfies its IT Security Requirements.
Consumers are advised to carefully review the certification report to gain an understanding of the security functionality, the tested configuration, FIPS validation details, and the intended operating environment for nShield HSM Firmware.
