330u Smart Card User PIN Unblocking Smart Card

Model 330u cryptographic smart card is a file-system card with an embedded microcontroller that contains the SCCOS (SafeNet Cryptographic Card Operating System) operating system. The "u" designation represents User PIN Unblocking - an enhanced function that organizations can add to the 330 card. The User PIN unblocking capability gives users the ability to unlock their cards if they become locked by too many incorrect card log-in attempts.

Features

• ISO-compliant (7816) smart card format
• Validated for FIPS 140-1 Level 2
• Cryptographic co-processor for improved performance and speed
• SCCOS smart card operating system in 32K ROM
• 32K EEPROM for secure storage of keys, passwords, certificates, and data
• On-board DES hardware co-processor for secret-key encryption
• Implements cryptographic functions:
  • RSA/DSA key generation
  • RSA for digital signature
  • DSA for digital signature
  • RSA key exchange
  • Diffie-Hellman key exchange
  • SHA-1
  • DES/3DES encrypt/decrypt
• Hardware and software protection against differential power attacks and timing attacks
• User PIN unblocking capability, which provides built-in PINs to unlock the smart card if it becomes locked by too many incorrect passphrase entries. Saves the user from having to re-initialize their card, which wipes out all stored data, keys, certificates, etc.

The Model 330u smart card works on any Windows 98 or higher workstation, together with the Borderless Security Single Sign-On or CIP client software and the serial, USB, PCMCIA or other PC/SC compliant smart card reader.
