Setting New Standards of Excellence
With the KIV-7M, SafeNet again sets new standards of excellence for information security. The next generation of the venerable KIV-7 family leads the way in implementing the U.S. government‘s Cryptographic Modernization (CM) Initiative, and is among the first products designed to fully meet the five CM cornerstones:
The KIV-7M fully implements all U. S. National Security Agency requirements for Type 1 certification, and is approved for use at the highest level of assurance. This assured security robustness reflects the integrity of the KIV-7M’s overall design.
A New Dimension in High-Speed KG-84 Cryptographic Functions
The KIV-7M incorporates the latest security algorithms as determined by the Cryptographic Algorithm Configuration Management Board (CACMB). These algorithms provide interoperability in coalition environments, and algorithm agility and re-programmability for future security enhancements.
KIV-7M is fully compliant with the NSA‘s Link Encryptor Family Interoperability Specification, and is fully compatible with previous versions of the KIV-7 family. It is also interoperable with the KG-194/A series of encryptors. Its innovative multi-channel design allows KIV-7M users to replace two legacy devices with one KIV-7M, thus recovering valuable space in fixed shelter environments and reducing weight for mobile applications. Each channel is independently configurable and able to operate in full-duplex mode at 50Mbps in each direction. In addition, each channel may be configured to independent security classification levels.
The KIV-7M is upgradeable to provide network interoperability in accordance with the NSA High Assurance Internet Protocol Interoperability Specification (HAIPIS) by the addition of a SafeNet-designed network adapter card. This upgradeability and backward compatibility allows the community of users to conduct a phased migration to the Global Information Grid without losing connectivity to legacy architectures.
The KIV-7M is the next generation in a tradition of excellence from SafeNet, the foundation of information security.
