CARRIER OF KEY INFORMATION

20

Purpose:

Carrier of key information (CKI) is used to identify and authenticate users on the public key certificates and other cryptographic operations.

Main parameters and characteristic:

CKI provides for the following functions:

  • self-test when switching on electric power supply;
  • calculation and verification of electronic digital signature (EDS), according to STB 1176.2, STB P 34.101.45;
  • calculation of hash value according to STB 34.101.31;
  • random number generation in accordance with STB 34.101.47 based on hardware random number generator sequences;
  • generation of hash values of the private key of digital signature and encryption for the generation of session (one-off) keys of EDS and encryption under scheme of Diffie-Hellman;
  • encruption/decryption of information in accordance with STB 34.101.31;
  • encruption/decryption of information in accordance with GOST 28147.

Data exchange between the CKI and the computer (HC or server) is done through the USB interface using the application programming interface PKCS11.

CKI has the following operational characteristics:

  • average time between failures - not less than 10000 h;
  • average service life - at least 3 years;
  • average storage time 9from the date of manufacture before commissioning0 - at least 18 months when stored according to requirements.
