Apple

Hey Rich,

I doubt that there is much Mac or otherwise certified with the M yet since it is so new.

The 2015 MacBook uses a Core M processor, which is not on the list of validated CPUs. Hopefully that won't affect the FIPS 140-2 validation for CoreCrypto running on Core M-using Macs.

Thanks,

Rich

The following CAVP algorithm certificates were issued to Apple on 10 Apr 2015 for algorithms included in CoreCrypto Kernel 5.0. The span of nine certificate numbers for each algorithm covers CoreCrypto Kernel 5.0 across six iOS CPUs and three OS X CPUs. This explains why Apple had to go through FIPS 140-2 again for CoreCrypto 5.0 in iOS 8 and OS X 10.10.

AES - 04/10/2015 - certificates #3317-#3325 (CoreCrypto 5.0 Kernel)

3DES - 04/10/2015 - certificates #1889-#1897 (CoreCrypto 5.0 Kernel)

RSA - 04/10/2015 - certificates #1698-#1706 (CoreCrypto 5.0 Kernel)

ECDSA - 04/10/2015 - certificates #646-#654 (CoreCrypto 5.0 Kernel)

SHS - 04/10/2015 - certificates #2749-#2757 (CoreCrypto 5.0 Kernel)

DRBG - 04/10/2015 - certificates #763-#771 (CoreCrypto 5.0 Kernel)

HMAC - 04/10/2015 - cerficates #2108-#2116 (CoreCrypto 5.0 Kernel)

For iOS 8, the validated CPUs include A5, A5X, A6, A6X, A7, A8.

For OS X 10.10, the validated CPUs include Intel i5, Intel i7, Intel Xeon.
