Encompassing the most widely-used and rich set of cryptographic algorithms as well as secure communications protocols, RSA BSAFE software is a set of complementary security products relied on by developers and manufacturers worldwide. The Crypto-J software library, which relies on the Java Cryptographic Module library, is the world's most trusted Java-language cryptography component, and is at the heart of the RSA BSAFE product line. It includes a wide range of data encryption and signing algorithms, including AES, Triple-DES, the RSA Public Key Cryptosystem, the Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem, DSA, and the SHA1 and SHA2 message digest routines. Its software libraries, sample code and complete standards-based implementation enable near-universal interoperability for your networked and e-business applications. 1.2 Module Characteristics JCM is classified as a FIPS 140-2 multi-chip standalone module. As such, JCM is tested on particular operating systems and computer platforms. The cryptographic boundary includes JCM running on selected platforms that are running selected operating systems. JCM is validated for FIPS 140-2 Security Level 2 for Roles, Services and Authentication, Security Level 3 for Design Assurance, and overall for Security Level 1 requirements. JCM is packaged in a Java Archive (JAR) file containing all the code for the module. The JCM API of the JCM module is provided in the jcmFIPS.jar and jcmandroidfips.jar files. 4 The Cryptographic Module RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 JCM is tested on the following platforms: • Google™ Android™ 2.2 ARM (32-bit) JRE 6.0 Microsoft® Windows 7™ (64-bit) with Sun JRE 6.0. • Compliance is maintained on platforms for which the binary executable remains unchanged.

The Cryptographic Module 7 RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 1.3 Module Interfaces As a multi-chip standalone module, the physical interface to the JCM consists of a keyboard, mouse, monitor, serial ports and network adapters. The underlying logical interface to the module is the API, documented in the relevant API Javadoc. The module provides for Control Input through the API calls. Data Input and Output are provided in the variables passed with API calls, and Status Output is provided in the returns and error codes documented for each call. This is shown in the following diagram. Physical Boundary Application Data In Data Out Control In Status Out Cryptographic Boundary Cryptographic Module JCM Jar Runs on JVM Provides services for Module Java Virtual Machine (JVM) Runs on OS Provides services for JVM Operating System (OS) Runs on Hardware Software Hardware Provides services for OS Hardware Figure 1 JCM Logical Diagram 8 The Cryptographic Module RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 1.4 Roles, Services and Authentication JCM meets all FIPS140-2 Level 2 requirements for Roles, Services and Authentication, implementing both a Crypto Officer role and a Crypto User role. Role-Based Authentication is used for these roles. This authentication mechanism uses 512-bit (64 byte) PINs generated using an Approved Random Number Generator, HMAC DRBG. A random attempt to guess the PIN will succeed with a probability of 1 in 2512. The PIN is saved as a salted hash in the module configuration file. The salted hash value is computed by combining the PIN and a 512-bit random (salt) value, which is generated using the HMAC-DRBG, then hashing the combined value using SHA-512. The API for control of JCM is through the com.rsa.crypto.ModuleConfig class. Roles can be assumed by creating a FIPS140Context object which encapsulates a particular FIPS 140-2 Role, and using the object as input to authenticated services. Authentication is required in order to create a FIPS140Context object, and authenticated services cannot be accessed without a FIPS140Context object. The ModuleConfig class contains APIs for PIN initialization and management. 1.4.1 Crypto Officer Role The Crypto Officer Role is responsible for installation and management of the cryptographic module. During installation of the module, the Crypto Officer Role is assumed. The installation process includes module initialization, which requires initialization of role PINs required for authentication during operation of the module. After installation and initialization, authentication is required to assume the Crypto Officer Role. An operator can assume the Crypto Officer Role by providing credentials to the Service to be used by the operator. The Services section provides a list of services available to the Crypto Officer Role. 1.4.2 Crypto User Role The User Role performs general security services, including cryptographic operations and other approved security functions. After installation and initialization, authentication is required to assume the User Role. An operator can assume the Crypto User Role by constructing a FIPS140Context object where the role is specified as ModuleConfig.USER_ROLE. The FIPS140Context object can then be input to a Service which is to be used by the Crypto User Role. The Services section provides a list of services available to the Crypto User Role. The Cryptographic Module 9 RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 1.4.3 Services The following table lists the services that must be used to install and initialize the module. These services can be accessed un-authenticated by the Crypto Officer Role. Table 1 Crypto Officer Installation Services Crypto Officer Role Installation Services ModuleLoader.load ModuleConfig.initFIPS140PINs The following table lists the services provided by JCM which may be used by un-authenticated operators after installation, in terms of the module interface. These services do not affect the security of the module since they do not make any use of cryptographic keys or Critical Security Parameters (CSPs).

In the FIPS-Approved mode, RSA keys can only be generated using the Approved 186-3 RSA key generation method. The module also employs a Federal Information Processing Standard 186-2 Approved Random Number Generator, a FIPS-Approved HMAC Deterministic Random Bit Generator (HMAC DRBG SP800-90), as well as a FIPS-Approved Dual Elliptic Curve Deterministic Random Bit Generator (EC DRBG SP 800-90) for generating asymmetric and symmetric keys used in algorithms such as AES, Triple-DES, RSA, DSA, DH and ECC. 1.5.2 Key Protection All key data resides in internally allocated data structures and can only be output using the JCM API. The operating system and the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) safeguards memory and process space from unauthorized access. 1.5.3 Key Access An authorized operator of the module has access to all key data created during JCM operation. The following table lists the different services provided by the module with the type of access to keys or CSPs. Table 6 Key and CSP Access Service Key or CSP Type of Access Asymmetric Asymmetric keys (RSA) Read/Execute Encryption and Decryption Encryption and decryption Symmetric keys (AES, Triple-DES) Read/Execute Digital signature and Asymmetric keys (DSA, RSA, ECDSA) Read/Execute verification Hashing None N/A MAC HMAC keys Read/Execute Random number generation FIPS 186-2 seed and key Read/Write/Execute HMAC DRBG entropy, strength, and seed EC DRBG entropy, strength, and seed Key establishment primitives Asymmetric keys (DH, ECDH) Read/Execute The Cryptographic Module 13 RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 Table 6 Key and CSP Access (continued) Service Key or CSP Type of Access Key generation Symmetric keys (AES, Triple-DES) Write Asymmetric keys (DSA, EC DSA, RSA, DH, ECDH) MAC keys (HMAC) Self-test Hard-coded keys, Read/Execute (AES, Triple-DES, RSA, DSA, ECDSA, HMAC) Hard-coded entropy, strength, and seed (HMAC DRBG and EC DRBG) Hard-coded seed, (FIPS 186-2 RNG) Show status None N/A Zeroization All Read/Write 1.5.4 Key Zeroization The module stores all its keys and Critical Security Parameters (CSPs) in volatile memory. Users can ensure CSPs are properly zeroized by making use of the .clearSensitiveData() method. All of the module’s keys and CSPs are zeroizable. For more information about clearing CSPs, see the relevant API Javadoc. 1.5.5 Key Storage JCM does not provide long-term cryptographic key storage. Storage of keys is the responsibility of the user of JCM. The following table shows how the storage of keys and CSPs are handled.

This can be used in FIPS mode when used with a FIPS-approved Symmetric Cipher and Message Digest algorithm. For information on how to use PBKDF, see “Crypto User Guidance” on page 21 ***When used with a FIPS-approved Message Digest algorithm. 16 The Cryptographic Module RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 The following lists all other available algorithms in the JCM that are not allowable for FIPS 140 usage. These algorithms must not be used when operating the module in a FIPS 140 compliant way. • DES • DESX • ECIES • MD2 • MD4 • MD5 RC2® block cipher • RC4® stream cipher • RC5® block cipher • • RSA Keypair Generation MultiPrime (2 or 3 primes) • RIPEMD160 • HMAC-MD5. The Cryptographic Module 17 RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 1.7 Self-tests The module performs power-up and conditional self-tests to ensure proper operation. If the power-up self-test fails, the module is disabled and throws a SecurityException. The module cannot be used within the current JVM. If the conditional self-test fails, the module throws a SecurityException and aborts the operation. A conditional self-test failure does NOT disable the module. 1.7.1 Power-up Self-tests The following FIPS-140 required power-up self-tests are implemented in the module: • FIPS186 PRNG KAT • AES KATs • TDES KATs • SHA-1 KAT • SHA-256 KAT • SHA-512 KAT • HMAC DRBG KAT • EC DRBG KAT • HMAC-SHA1 software integrity check • DSA Sign/Verify Test • RSA Sign/Verify Test • ECDSA Sign/Verify Test. Power-up self-tests are executed automatically when the module is loaded into memory. 1.7.2 Conditional Self-tests The module performs two conditional self-tests: • Pair-wise Consistency Tests each time the module generates a DSA, RSA or ECDSA key pair. • Continuous RNG (CRNG) Test each time the module produces random data, as per the FIPS 140-2 standard. The CRNG test is performed on the following RNGs: – EC DRBG – HMAC DRBG – FIPS186 PRNG. 18 The Cryptographic Module RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 1.7.3 Mitigation of Other Attacks RSA key operations implement blinding by default. Blinding is a reversible way of modifying the input data, so as to make the RSA operation immune to timing attacks. Blinding has no effect on the algorithm other than to mitigate attacks on the algorithm. RSA Blinding is implemented through blinding modes, for which the following options are available: • Blinding mode off • Blinding mode with no update, where the blinding value is squared for each operation • Blinding mode with full update, where a new blinding value is used for each operation. The Cryptographic Module 19 RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 2 Secure Operation of the Module The following guidance must be followed in order to operate the module in a FIPS 140 mode of operation, in conformance with FIPS 140-2 requirements. 2.1 Module Configuration To operate the module compliance with FIPS 140-2 Level 1 with Level 2 Roles, Services and Authentication requirements, the module must be loaded using the following methods with the specified arguments: For the Android platform: com.rsa.crypto.jcm.ModuleLoader.load(File jarFile, int securityLevel, int katStrategy, SelfTestEventListener selfTestListener) • where jarFile is the module JAR file, securityLevel is the value 2 (specified as the constant ModuleConfig.LEVEL_2) and katStrategy is the value 0 (specified as the constant ModuleConfig.ON_LOAD). For all other platforms: com.rsa.crypto.jcm.ModuleLoader.load(int securityLevel, int katStrategy, SelfTestEventListener selfTestListener) • where securityLevel is the value 2 (specified as the constant ModuleConfig.LEVEL_2) and katStrategy is the value 0 (specified as the constant ModuleConfig.ON_LOAD). Using the specified securityLevel ensures that the module is loaded for use in compliance with FIPS 140 for Level 2 Roles, Services and Authentication. Using the specified katStrategy value ensures that all module self-tests are run during module start-up, as required by FIPS 140-2. Once the load method has been successfully called for the first time, the module PINs must be initialized using the initFIPS140RolePINs method in the ModuleConfig class. Please refer to the relevant API Javadoc for alternative overloaded options which can be supplied to this method, such as PIN validity period and Cryptographic Module Configuration File location. Once the PINs have been initialized, the module is operational. 20 Secure Operation of the Module RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 2.2 Security Roles, Services and Authentication Operation The Crypto Officer is responsible for installing and initializing the module for operation, as specified in the 2.1 Module Configuration section. Once this is complete, the module is ready for operation. During operation, the PINs created during module initialization (via the ModuleConfig.initFIPS140PINs method) must be used to authenticate the operators before performing the authenticated services available to the Crypto Officer Role and the Crypto User Role. To access PIN management services as the Crypto Officer Role, the Crypto Officer Role PIN must be supplied as input to the service APIs. To access security services as the Crypto User Role, the User Role PIN must be supplied to create a FIPS140Context object, which is required as input to the ModuleConfig.newCryptoModule method. The returned CryptoModule object provides access to all Crypto User security functions. 2.3 Crypto User Guidance This section provides guidance to the module user to ensure that the module is used in a FIPS 140-2 compliant way. Section 2.3.1 provides algorithm-specific guidance. The requirements listed in this section are not enforced by the module and must be ensured by the module user. Section 2.3.2 provides guidance on obtaining assurances for Digital Signature Applications. Section 2.3.3 provides general crypto user guidance. 2.3.1 Crypto User Guidance on Algorithms • The Crypto User must only use algorithms approved for use in a FIPS 140 mode of operation, as listed in Table 8, “JCM FIPS 140-approved Algorithms,” on page 16. • When generating key pairs using the KeyPairGenerator object, the generate(boolean pairwiseConsistency) method must not be invoked with an argument of false. Use of the no-argument generate() method is recommended. • When using GCM feedback mode for symmetric encryption, the authentication tag length and authenticated data length may be specified as input parameters, but the Initialization Vector (IV) must not be specified. It must be generated internally. • RSA keys used for signing shall not be used for any other purpose other than digital signatures. • For RSASSA-PSS, the length of the salt (sLen) shall be 0<=sLen<=hlen where hlen is the length of the hash function output block. Secure Operation of the Module 21 RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 Bit lengths for the Diffie-Hellman1 primitives must be between 1024 and 2048 • bits. Diffie Hellman shared secret provides between 80 bits and 112 bits of encryption strength. • Bit lengths for an HMAC key must be one half of the block size. • For RSA digital signature generation either Dual EC DRBG or HMAC DRBG have to be used. • EC key pairs must have domain parameters from the set of NIST-recommended named curves (P-192, P-224, P-256, P-384, P-521, B-163, B-233, B-283, B-409, B-571, K-163, K-233, K-283, K-409, and K-571). The domain parameters can be specified by name or can be explicitly defined. The module limits possible curves for Dual EC DRBG to P-256, P-384, and P-521 in accordance with SP 800-90. • EC Diffie-Hellman primitives must use curve domain parameters from the set of NIST recommended named curves listed above. The domain parameters can be specified by name, or can be explicitly defined. Using the NIST-recommended curves, the computed Diffie-Hellman shared secret provides between 80 bits and 256 bits of encryption strength. • When using an Approved RNG to generate keys or DSA parameters, the RNG’s requested security strength must be at least as great as the security strength of the key being generated. That means that either Dual EC DRBG or HMAC DRBG with an appropriate strength have to be used. For more information on requesting the RNG security strength, see the relevant API Javadoc. • When using the FIPS 186-2 RNG, the number of bytes of seed key input must be equivalent to or greater than the security strength of the keys the caller wishes to generate. For example, a 256-bit or higher seed key input when generating 256-bit AES keys. • SHA1 is deprecated for the generation of digital signatures from 2011 to 2013, and will be disallowed after 2013. • Only FIPS 140 Approved RNGs may be used for generation of keys (asymmetric and symmetric). • RSA keys shall have a modulus of size 1024, 2048 or 3072 bits, and shall have a public exponent of at least 65537. • RSA key pairs shall be generated according to FIPS 186-3 by specifying a KEY_TYPE parameter of 0. This is the default KEY_TYPE value, so may be omitted as an input parameter (to the KeyPairGenerator.initialize method). • DSA parameters shall be generated according to FIPS 186-3 by specifying the algorithm string “DSA” when creating the AlgParamGenerator object. The non-Approved algorithm specified by the string “PQG” shall not be used. • The following restrictions apply to the use of PBKDF: – Keys generated using PBKDF shall only be used in data storage applications. – The minimum password length is 10 characters, which has a strength of approximately 80 bits, assuming a randomly selected password using the extended ASCII printable character set is used. For random passwords - a string of characters from a given set of characters in 1 Using the minimum allowed modulus size, the minimum strength of encryption provided is 80 bits. 22 Secure Operation of the Module RSA BSAFE Crypto-J JSAFE and JCE Software Module Security Policy Level 2 which each character is equally likely to be selected - the strength of the password is given by: S = L * (log N/log 2) where N is the number of possible characters (for example, ASCII printable characters N = 95, extended ASCII printable characters N = 218) and L is the number of characters. A password of the strength S can be guessed at random with the probability of 1/2S. – The length of the randomly-generated portion of the salt shall be at least 16 bytes.2 – The iteration count shall be selected as large as possible, a minimum of 1000 iterations is recommended.2 The maximum key length is (232 -1) * b, where b is the digest size of the hash – function. – The key derived using PBKDF can be used as referred to in SP800-132, Section 5.4, option 1 and 22. 2.3.2 Crypto User Guidance on Obtaining Assurances for Digital Signature Applications The module has added support for the FIPS 186-3 standard for digital signatures.
