Housed in a tamper evident chassis, the Sentriant CE150 has two Gigabit Ethernet ports. Traffic on the local port is received and transmitted within the trusted network in the clear, while traffic on the remote port over the internet has security processing applied to it. Fully compatible with existing IP networks, the Sentriant CE150 can be seamlessly deployed into Gigabit Ethernet environments, including IP site-to-site VPNs and storage over IP networks. Its high-speed AES and Triple-DES IPSec processing eliminates bottlenecks while providing data authentication, confidentiality, and integrity. Figure 2 shows the physical layout of the Sentriant CE150. The back of the module (not displayed) contains a standard, enclosed line cord receptacle and cannot be exploited. Figure 2.

IPSec does this by specifying which traffic to protect, how to protect it, and who to send it to. It provides a method for selecting the required security protocols, determining the algorithms to use for the services, and putting in place any cryptographic keys required to provide the requested services. Because the IP layer provides IPSec services, they can be used by any higher layer protocol. 2.3.1 IPSec Services IPSec security services include: · Data confidentiality - The sender can encrypt packets before sending them across a network, providing assurance that unauthorized parties cannot view the contents. · Data integrity - The receiver can authenticate packets sent by the IPSec sender to ensure that the data has not been altered in transit. · Data origin authentication -The receiver can authenticate the identity of the sender. This service is dependent on the data integrity service. · Anti-replay protection - The receiver can detect and reject replayed packets. 2.4 Security Rules for FIPS Level 2 Operation The Sentriant CE150 is bound by the following rules of operation to meet FIPS 140-2 Level 2 requirements.

The module compares the output of the RNG with the previous output to ensure the RNG has not failed to a constant value. The Broadcom RBG 100 Random Bit Generator is a non-approved, non-deterministic hardware-based RNG. A continuous test is done for both RNGs. Conditional Pairwise Consistency Test: The Sentriant CE150 includes a conditional pairwise consistency test (sign and verify operation) every time RSA keys are generated. Firmware Load Test: The Sentriant CE150 includes a software/firmware load test with an RSA signature verification of downloaded software/firmware. In order for the module to maintain FIPS compliance the software/firmware to be upgraded must be validated to FIPS 140-2. If any of these self-tests fail, the module enters an error state and all data is inhibited. Running of the power-on self-tests is automatically initiated whenever power to the module is cycled or, on demand, by issuing the "reboot" command. 4 Specification of the Sentriant CE150 Security Policy Three roles, which either provide security services or receive services of the Sentriant CE150, are the basis of the specification of the Sentriant CE150 security policy. These roles are: Crypto Security Officer: The Crypto Security Officer role consists of the Ops user. The role defines and implements all security and network services. The role specifies the traffic to have security algorithms applied and the transforms to be applied, defines the IP network interfaces and remote management mechanisms, and performs any software updates or network troubleshooting. Crypto Security Officer A: The Crypto Security Officer "A" role consists of the Admin user. The role controls access to the Sentriant CE150 by maintaining all role-based userid/password configurations. Network User: The User role uses the security services implemented on the Sentriant CE150. The Network User is any Sentriant CE150 appliance that is authenticated with another Sentriant CE150 appliance to perform encryption and decryption services. The Sentriant CE150 receives user traffic on its local port. It then applies the security services to that traffic and transmits the traffic out the remote port. In addition, the Sentriant CE150 can receive encrypted traffic on its remote port, decrypt the traffic and transmit the traffic to the user on the local port. All rights reserved.

The following table defines the Identification and Authentication Policy: Table 3. Identification/Authentication Policy Role Identification/ Authentication Crypto Security Officer (CSO) Ops UserId/Password Crypto Security Officer A (CSOA) Admin UserId/Password Network User (User) Remote peer IP address and either Certificate or Pre-Shared Key Note: Any reference of CSO, CSOA, and User under the Access Control, Roles, and Services indicates the Identification/Authentication as found in the table above. Access of the Crypto Security Officer may be denied after three unsuccessful login attempts by default. The Crypto Security Officer A may set inactivity time outs for login sessions. The login restrictions apply to the CSO and CSOA. They are not applicable to the Network User. 4.2 Access Control, Roles, and Services Table 4 below defines the services, the roles that use the services, the security relevant objects created or used in the performance of the service, and the form of access given to those security relevant objects. The cryptographic boundary for the implementation of these services extends to the physical dimensions of a Sentriant CE150 module and includes all internal printed circuit cards, integrated circuitry, and so forth contained within its physical dimensions.

The appliance is housed in an opaque, steel chassis with external connections provided for the local and remote data network ports, as well as the RS-232 serial port, 10/100 Ethernet port, and status LEDs. The top lid and baseboard sub-assembly are attached to the case using screws. A tamper evident seal is provided over one screw in such a manner that an attempt to remove the cover requires removal of that screw and indicates subsequent evidence of tampering. The Crypto Security Officer shall periodically check the tamper evident seal to verify that the module has not been opened. If the seal is broken, reload the security policies and replace the tamper seal. All rights reserved.

Sentriant CE150 Rear Panel Tamper Seal 4.4 Strength of Function Within the cryptographic security boundary, the Sentriant CE150 will act only on traffic for which a security policy has been defined. Therefore any data received for which no policy exists will be discarded. In addition, any clear traffic destined for the Sentriant CE150's network address will be discarded. The appliance does not contain a bypass service. The appliance will respond only to IP protocol 50 and 51 and TCP/UDP port 500 packets. Thus port scans and DOS attacks are mitigated. To mitigate against replay attacks, an anti-replay can be enabled on the appliance. A secure environment relies on security mechanisms, such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems and so forth, to provide mitigation of other attacks, which could lead to a loss of integrity, availability, confidentiality, or accountability, outside of the cryptographic security boundary. Further, no mitigation is provided against clandestine electromagnetic interception and reconstruction or loss of confidentiality via covert channels (such as power supply modulation), or other techniques, not tested as part of this validation. 5 Glossary of Terms Authentication Authentication is the process of identification of a user, device or other entity, (typically based on a password or pass phrase) known only to a single user, which when paired with the user's identification allows access to a secure resource. CBC The cipher-block chaining mode of DES. See FIPS Publication 81 for a complete description of CBC mode. Confidentiality Confidentiality is the assurance that information is not disclosed to unauthorized persons, processes, or devices. Configuration Management Management of security features and assurances through control of changes made to hardware, firmware, software, or documentation, test, test fixtures, and test documentation throughout the lifecycle of the IT. Crypto Security Officer (CSO) The Crypto Security Officer is the individual responsible for all security protections resulting from the use of technically sound cryptographic systems. The Crypto Security Officer duties are defined within this document. Crypto Security Officer A (CSOA) The Crypto Security Officer A is the individual responsible for controlling access to the Sentriant CE150 by maintaining all role-base userid/password configurations. The Crypto Security Officer A duties are defined within this document. Network User (User) The Network User is a Sentriant CE150 device that has authenticated with a remote Sentriant CE150 device to perform encryption/decryption services between one or more Sentriant CE150s.
