Proprietary Security Policy
Level 2 Validation
Version 1.3
December 14, 2005
Introduction
This document is the non-proprietary Cryptographic Module Security Policy for the Cisco 1841
Integrated Services Routers with AIM-VPN/BPII-Plus and Cisco 2801 Integrated Services Routers with
AIM-VPN/EPII-Plus. This security policy describes how the Cisco 1841 and Cisco 2801 Integrated
Services Routers (Hardware Version: 1841 or 2801; AIM-VPN/BPII-Plus Version: 1.0, Board Version:
C1; AIM-VPN/EPII-Plus Version: 1.0, Board Version: D0; Firmware Version: 12.3(11)T03) meet the
security requirements of FIPS 140-2, and how to operate the router in a secure FIPS 140-2 mode. This
policy was prepared as part of the Level 2 FIPS 140-2 validation of the Cisco 1841 and Cisco 2801
Integrated Services Routers.
FIPS 140-2 (Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 140-2—Security Requirements for
Cryptographic Modules) details the U.S. Government requirements for cryptographic modules. More
information about the FIPS 140-2 standard and validation program is available on the NIST website at
http://csrc.nist.gov/cryptval/.
