Overview
KVL6K E2EE for DIMETRA systems
The KVL6K E2EE enables users to easily manage and load end-to-end encryption keys. It consists of a USB Hardware Security Module (HSM) that provides secure storage and cryptographic operations, and an application that runs on a PC using Microsoft® Windows®.
KVL6K E2EE is compatible with Motorola Solutions TETRA devices and DIMETRA infrastructure. (For a full list of compatible TETRA devices, please view the specifications sheet).
Features
Key management
KVL6K E2EE provides means for creating and transferring encryption keys to Motorola Solutions devices (mobiles and portables) and infrastructure. Encryption keys can be entered manually by a KVL user, auto-generated by the KVL’s HSM, or downloaded from a Key Management Facility.
Automatic loading of E2EE keys into TETRA devices is an option that helps to speed up the provisioning process. The KVL6K E2EE automatically detects when it is connected to a radio, and the key loading process starts.
Intuitive user interface
The KVL6K E2EE Windows application has an intuitive user interface and supports touch screen devices, as well as both night and day modes.
The application dashboard helps with day-to-day operations and enables fast and easy key maintenance. Different views including Talkgroups, Cryptogroups and KMF related operations, provide an additional level of information to make key management more efficient.
Secure solution
The security of keys is paramount. The Hardware Security Module (HSM) has been designed to meet FIPS 140-3 Level 3 hardware specifications. It provides tamper protection, cryptographic operations and stores all critical parameters.
Separate Administrator and Operator roles are available for users. Adopting roles enables users to have the appropriate authorisation of key management activities.
