FIPS - Validation Certificate The National Institute of Standards The Communications Security and Technology of the United States Establishment of the Government of America of Canada Certificate No. 1005 The National Institute of Standards and Technology, as the United States FIPS 140-2 Cryptographic Module Validation Authority; and the Communications Security Establishment, as the Canadian FIPS 140-2 Cryptographic Module Validation Authority; hereby validate the FIPS 140-2 testing results of the Cryptographic Module identified as: Wi ndows Serve r 2008 Wi nload as Loader (wi ntoad.exe) by Microsoft Corporatio (When operated in FIPS mode with Boot Manager (bootmgr) validated to F4PS 140..2 under Cert. #1004 operating in FIPS mode) in accordance with the Derived Test Requirements for FIPS 140-2, Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules. FIPS 140-2 specifies the security requirements that are to be satisfied by a cryptographic module utilized within a security system protecting Sensitive Information (United States) or Protected Information (Canada) within computer and telecommunications systems (including voice systems). Products which use the above identified cryptographic module may be labeled as complying with the requirements of FIPS 140-2 so long as the product, throughout its life cycle, continues to use the validated version of the cryptographic module as specified in this certificate. The validation report contains additional details concerning test results. No reliability test has been performed and no warranty of the products by both agencies is either expressed or implied. This certificate includes details on the scope of conformance and validation authority signatures on the reverse. TM: A Cerlilicalian Mark 01 NIST, which does nat Imply produCl endOlSemenl by NISc the U.S., or Canadian Governments. FIPS 140-2 provides four increasing, qualitative levels of security: Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, and Level 4. These levels are intended to cover the wide range and potential applications and environments in which cryptographic modules may be employed. The security requirements cover eleven areas related to the secure design and implementation of a cryptographic module. The scope of conformance achieved by the cryptographic modules as tested in the product identified as: Windows Server 2008 Win load OS Loader (winload.eJ(Q) by Microsoft Corporation (Soff'tNare Version: 6.0.6001.18000; Software) At/an Laboratories, NVLAP Lab Code 200492-0 and tested by the Cryptographic Module Testing accredited laboratory: CRYPTIK Version 7.0 is as follows: ------------------------ Cryptographic Module Specification: Level 1 Cryptographic Module Ports and Interfaces: Level 1 Roles, Services, and Authentication: Levell Finite State Model: Level 1 Physical Security: Level N/A Cryptographic Key Management: Level 1 (Multi-Chip Standalone) EMlfEMC: Level 1 Self- Tests: Level 1 Design Assurance: Level 1 Mitigation of Other Attacks: Level N/A Operational Environment: Levell tested in the following configuration(s): Microsoft Windows Server 2008 (x86 Version); Microsoft Windows Server 2008 (x64 version); Microsoft Windows Server 2008 (IA64 version) (single-user mode) The following FIPS approved Cryptographic Algorithms are used: AES {Carts. #739' and #760}; RSA (Cert. #355); SHS (Cert. #753) The cryptographic module also contains the following non-FIPS approved al'gorithms: MD5 Overall Level Achieved: 1 Signed on behalf of the Government of the United States Signed on behalf of the Government of Canada Signature: a ,~tf: ,~/A/----.. ~k4w--;r; ~ / , Signature: ~ ~ 3 Dated fui0l ~ r t IJ I d7.111 Dated: Av,,~u s+ I??
