2.9.7 PCI-X Cryptographic Coprocessor

The PCI-X Cryptographic Coprocessor (FIPS 4) (FC 4764) for selected servers provides both
cryptographic coprocessor and secure-key cryptographic accelerator functions in a single
PCI-X card. The coprocessor functions are targeted to banking and finance applications.
Financial PIN processing and credit card functions are provided. EMV is a standard for
integrated chip-based credit cards. The secure-key accelerator functions are targeted at
improving the performance of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) transactions. FC 4764 provides
the security and performance required to support on demand business and the emerging
digital signature application.
The PCI-X Cryptographic Coprocessor (FIPS 4) (FC 4764) for selected servers provides
secure storage of cryptographic keys in a tamper resistant hardware security module (HSM),
that is designed to meet FIPS 140 security requirements. FIPS 140 is a U.S. Government
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-administered standard and
certification program for cryptographic modules. The firmware for the FC 4764 is available on
a separately ordered and distributed CD. This firmware is an LPO product: 5733-CY1
Cryptographic Device Manager. The FC 4764 also requires LPP 5722-AC3 Cryptographic
Access Provider to enable data encryption.
Table 2-29 lists the cryptographic adapter that is available for the 595 server.
