SB FIPS Java Module is a cryptographic toolkit for Java language users, providing services of various cryptographic algorithms such as hash algorithms, encryption schemes, message authentication, and public key cryptography. This Security Policy specifies the rules under which SB FIPS Java Module must operate. These security rules are derived from the requirements of FIPS 140-2 [1], and related documents [6, 7, 8]. 1.2 Purpose This Security Policy is created for the following purposes: 1. It is required for FIPS 140-2 validation. 2. To outline SB FIPS Java Module's conformance to FIPS 140-2 Level 1 Se- curity Requirements. 3. To provide users with how to configure and operate the cryptographic mod- ule in order to comply with FIPS 140-2. 1.3 References References [1] NIST Security Requirements For Cryptographic Modules, December 3, 2002.

The same binary is used for all identified computer hardware and OS because the JVM underneath SB FIPS Java Module will absorb the differences of the computer hardware and OS. The interface into SB FIPS Java Module is via Application Programmer's In- terface (API) method calls. These method calls provide the interface to the cryp- tographic services, for which the parameters and return codes provide the control input and status output (see Figure 2).

These roles are enforced by this Security Policy. The Crypto Officer has the responsibility for installing SB FIPS Java Module (see Table 2). In order to operate the module securely, it is the Crypto Officer and User's responsibility to confine calls to those methods that have been FIPS 140-2 Ap- proved. Thus, in the approved mode of operation, all Roles shall confine them- selves to calling FIPS Approved algorithms, as marked in Table 3. 4.2 Services SB FIPS Java Module supports many cryptographic algorithms. The set of cryp- tographic algorithms supported by SB FIPS Java Module are given in Table 3. The TDES, AES, SHS (SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA- 512), HMAC-SHS (HMAC-SHA-1, HMAC-SHA-224, HMAC-SHA256, HMAC- SHA-384, and HMAC-SHA-512), RNG, DSA, RSA PKCS #1, and ECDSA al- gorithms have been validated to comply with FIPS. SB FIPS Java Module also supports FIPS Approved key establishment techniques (key agreement and key wrapping), DH, ECDH, ECMQV, and RSA PKCS #1. In order to operate the module in compliance with FIPS, only these FIPS Approved algorithms should be used. DES, DESX, ARC2, ARC4, MD5, MD2, and HMAC-MD5 are supported as non FIPS Approved algorithms. In order to operate the module in compliance with FIPS, these algorithms should not be used. 4.3 Operator Authentication SB FIPS Java Module does not deploy authentication mechanism. The roles of Crypto Officer and User are implicitly selected by the operator. 15 Table 2: Roles, Services and Access Service Crypto User Keys and CSPs Access Officer Installation, etc. Installation Uninstallation Self-Tests ECDSA public key Use Show status Symmetric Ciphers Key generation AES, TDES keys Create, Read Encrypt AES, TDES keys Use Decrypt AES, TDES keys Use Hash Algorithms and Message Authentication Hashing Msg.

When the module is installed by the Crypto Officer, the module is in the Installed/Uninitialized state. 2. When the initialization command is applied to the module, i.e., the module is loaded on the memory, turning to the Initialization state. Then, it transits to the Self-Test state automatically, running the Power-up Tests. While in the Self-Test state, all data output via the data output interface is prohibited. On success the module enters Idle; on failure the module enters Error and the module is disabled. From the Error state the Crypto Officer may need to re-install to attempt correction. 3. From the Idle state (which is only entered if Self-Tests have succeeded), the module can transit to the Crypto Officer/User state when an API method is called. 4. When the API method has completed successfully, the state transits back to Idle. 5. If the Conditional Test (Continuous RNG Test or Pair-wise Consistency Test) fails, the state transits to Error and the module is disabled. 6. When On-demand Self-Test is executed, the module enters the Self-Test state. While in the Self-Test state, all data output via the data output inter- face is prohibited. On success the module enters Idle; on failure the module enters Error and the module is disabled. 18 7. When the de-initialization command is executed, the module goes back to the Installed/Uninitialized state. 19 6 Physical Security Physical security is not applicable to this software module at Level 1 Security. 20 7 Operational Environment This module is to be run in single user mode on the target operating system. For an operating system such as UNIX, Linux or Windows, it must be configured to run in single user mode. 21 8 Cryptographic Key Management SB FIPS Java Module provides the underlying method to support FIPS 140-2 Level 1 key management. The user will select FIPS Approved algorithms and will handle keys with appropriate care to build up a system that complies with FIPS 140-2. It is the Crypto Officer and User's responsibility to select FIPS 140-2 validated algorithms (see Table 3). 8.1 Key Generation SB FIPS Module provides FIPS 140-2 compliant key generation. The underlying random number generation uses a FIPS Approved method, the ANSI X9.62 RNG [4]. 8.2 Key Establishment SB FIPS Java Module provides the following FIPS allowed key establishment techniques [5]: 1. Diffie-Hellman (DH) 2. EC Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) 3. ECMQV 4. RSA PKCS1-v1 5 5. RSA OAEP The RSA key wrapping techniques above are based on the PKCS #1 v2.1 standard, and are used to transport keys. The ECDH and ECMQV key agreement technique implementations support elliptic curve sizes from 160 bits to above 512 bits that provide between 80 and 256 bits of security strength. The DH key agreement technique implementation supports modulus sizes from 512 bits to 15360 bits that provide between 56 and 256 bits of security strength, where 1024 bits and above must be used to pro- vide minimum of 80 bits of security. The RSA implementation supports modulus sizes from 512 bits to 15360 bits that provide between 56 and 256 bits of security strength, where 1024 bits and above must be used to provide minimum of 80 bits of security. 22 It is users responsibility to ensure that the appropriate key establishment tech- niques are applied to the appropriate keys. 8.3 Key Entry and Output It is not allowed to import or export keys, including a seed key, and other security sensitive information outside of physical boundary in plaintext format. For key entry and export, users must ensure to deploy appropriate encryption method using FIPS Approved encryption algorithms in SB FIPS Java Module or any other FIPS validated cryptographic module. 8.4 Key Storage SB FIPS Java Module is a low-level cryptographic toolkit, and as such does not provide key storage. 8.5 Zeroization of Keys SB FIPS Java Module provides a zeroizable interface which implements a ze- roization method. Zeroization of all keys and CSPs are performed in the finalizing method of the objects; JVM executes the finalizing methods every time it operates garbage collection. Also, a zeroization class is provided, where it will invoke the zeroize method when given an object that implements the zeroizable interface. 23 9 Self-Tests 9.1 Power-up Tests 9.1.1 Tests upon Power-up Self-Tests are initiated automatically by the module at start-up. The following tests are applied: 1. Known Answer Tests (KATs): KATs are performed on TDES, AES, SHS (via HMAC-SHS), HMAC-SHS, RNG, and RSA PKCS #1 v1.5 Signature Algorithm. For DSA and ECDSA, Pair-wise Consistency Test is used. 2. Software Integrity Test: The software integrity test deploys ECDSA signature validation to verify the integrity of the module. 9.1.2 On-Demand Self-Tests On-demand self tests may be invoked by the Cryptographic Officer or User by invoking a method, which is described in the Crypto Officer And User Guide in Appendix A. 9.2 Conditional Tests The Continuous RNG Test is executed on all RNG generated data, examining the first 160 bits of each requested random generation for repetition. This ensures that the RNG is not stuck at any constant value. Also, upon each generation of a RSA, DSA, or ECDSA key pair, the generated key pair is tested of their correctness by generating a signature and verifying the signature on a given message as a Pair-wise Consistency Test. 9.3 Failure of Self-Tests Failure of the Self-Tests places the cryptographic module in the Error state, wherein no cryptographic operations can be performed. If any Self-Test fails, the crypto- graphic module will output error code. 24 10 Design Assurance 10.1 Configuration Management A configuration management system for the cryptographic module is employed and has been described in a document to the certifying lab. It uses the Concurrent Versioning System (CVS) to track the configurations. 10.2 Delivery and Operation Please refer to Section A.1 of Crypto Officer And User Guide in Appendix A to review the steps necessary for the secure installation and initialization of the cryptographic module. 10.3 Development Detailed design information and procedures have been described in documenta- tion submitted to the certifying laboratory. This toolkit is designed and developed using high level language Java for Java users. Development for the cryptographic module is carried out in a multi-platform environment. Certicom is using the CVS revision control system to control revi- sions. Development of new versions and major features are performed on a branch of the software, and these branches merged back into the trunk after testing and review, but the branch is maintained to perform post-release maintenance. Releases are tested first in engineering (via an automated daily procedure, the daily build). They are then committed to the product candidate repository. These releases are then sent to the QA department which must run its own tests before they move them into the product branch. Only QA can move candidates into products. 10.4 Guidance Documents Crypto Officer Guide and User Guide are provided in Appendix A. This appendix outlines the operations for Crypto Officer and User to ensure the security of the module. 25 11 Mitigation of Other Attacks SB FIPS Java Module implements mitigation of the following attacks: 1. Timing attack on RSA 2. Attack on biased private key of DSA 11.1 Timing Attack on RSA When employing Montgomery computations, timing effects allow an attacker to tell when the base of exponentiation is near the secret modulus. This leaks infor- mation concerning the secret modulus. In order to mitigate this attack, the following is executed: The bases of ex- ponentiation are randomized by a novel technique that requires no inversion to remove (unlike other blinding methods e.g. BSAFE Crypto-C User Manual v 4.2). Note that Remote Timing Attacks are Practical: http://crypto.stanford.edu/ dabo/papers/ssl-timing.pdf 11.2 Attack on Biased Private Key of DSA The standards for choosing ephemeral values in El-Gamal type signatures intro- duce a slight bias. Means to exploit these biases were presented to ANSI by D. Bleichenbacher. In order to mitigate this attack, the following is executed: The bias in the RNG is reduced to levels which are far below the Bleichenbacher attack threshold. Change Notice 1 of FIPS 186-2 is published to mitigate this attack: http://csrc.nist.gov/CryptoToolkit/tkdigsigs.html 26 A Crypto Officer And User Guide A.1 Installation In order to carry out a secure installation of SB FIPS Java Module, the Crypto Officer must follow the procedure described in this section. A.1.1 Installing The Crypto Officer is responsible for the installation of SB FIPS Java Module. Only the Crypto Officer is allowed to install the product. The Crypto Officer must have administrative privileges on the computer. Place EccpressoFIPS.jar, EccpressoFIPSJca.jar, and EccpressoJDK15SECC.jar files in CLASSPATH or as an installed exten- sion. Note that EccpressoFIPS.jar is the cryptographic module. A.1.2 Uninstalling Remove the jar files from the computer hardware. A.2 Commands A.2.1 Initialization FIPSManager.activateFIPSMode() This method runs a series of Self-Tests on the module. These tests examine the integrity of the shared object, and the correct operation of the cryptographic algorithms. If these tests are successful, the module will be enabled. A.2.2 Deinitialization FIPSManager.deactivateFIPSMode() This method de-initializes the module. A.2.3 Self-Tests FIPSManager.runSelfTests() This method runs a series of Self-Tests, and returns true if the tests are suc- cessful. These tests examine the integrity of the shared object, and the correct 27 operation of the cryptographic algorithms. If these tests fail, the module will be disabled. Section A.3 of this document describes how to recover from the disabled state. A.2.4 Show Status Status can be found by calling FIPSManager.isFIPSMode() and FIPS- Manager.requestCryptoOperation(). If both methods return true, the module is in the Idle state. A.3 When Module is Disabled When SB FIPS Java Module becomes disabled, attempt to bring the module back to the Installed state by calling the deinitialization method, and then to initial- ize the module using the initialization method. If the initialization is successful, the module is recovered. If this attempt fails, uninstall the module and re-install it. If the module is initialized successfully by this re-installation, the recovery is successful. If this recovery attempt fails, it indicates a fatal error.
