8. Security Modules

Starting with version 2.5 LinOTP supports different security modules.

The security module specifies how the encryption of the HMAC keys and password is handled in LinOTP.

The default behaviour having 3 AES encryption keys in a file /etc/linotp2/encKey is also seen as a security module.
