Disclaimer
----------

The KFDtool as a computer peripheral has several important considerations to keep in mind when secure keyloading is required:

* The following points are only valid with unmodified software, firmware, and hardware. With physical access to the PC or adapter, the software, firmware, or hardware could be modified to covertly retain the plaintext keying material.

* Plaintext keying material is present in the PC's RAM, over the USB connection, in the adapter's RAM, and over the keyload connection. Therefore, you must trust the PC that the software is running on, or air gap it.

* It is possible that plaintext keying material in the PC's RAM is paged out to disk. It is also possible that Windows crash dumps may contain plaintext keying material. Therefore, it is recommended that the PC's hard drive is protected using full disk encryption such as BitLocker and powered off when unattended.

* After the KFDtool adapter has been disconnected from the USB port, any residual plaintext keying material present in the microcontroller's RAM will be lost.

* When certain non-default logging is enabled, plaintext keying material is written out to the log file on disk. This logging should only be enabled when diagnostic information needs to be collected, and only used with dummy keying material.

Features
--------

**Key Fill Device (KFD)**

Supported Manual Rekeying Features (TIA-102.AACD-A section 2.3)

* 2.3.1 Keyload
* 2.3.2 Key Erase
* 2.3.3 Erase All Keys
* 2.3.4 View Key Info

Motorola refers to the P25 standard 3 wire interface (3WI) keyload protocol as ASTRO 25 mode or CKR mode.

The legacy Motorola proprietary keyloading formats SECURENET and ASN (Advanced SECURENET) are **NOT** supported by KFDtool. PID mode is also used to refer to ASN mode.

Key validators/generators are available for the following algorithms:

* AES-256 (Algorithm ID 0x84)
* DES-OFB (Algorithm ID 0x81)
* DES-XL (Algorithm ID 0x9F)
* ADP/RC4 (Algorithm ID 0xAA)

**Mobile Radio (MR) Emulator**

Supported Manual Rekeying Features (TIA-102.AACD-A section 2.3)

* 2.3.1 Keyload

Radio Compatibility
-------------------

*Any statements of compatibility do not imply endorsement by the vendor. Testing has not been performed by the vendor themselves.*

**A detailed list of compatible radios and adapters is available [here](doc/RADIO_COMPATIBILITY.md).**

Radios that are compatible with Motorola KVL3000/KVL3000+/KVL4000/KVL5000 keyloaders in ASTRO 25 mode should be compatible with KFDtool.

Keyloading cables made for other radios with MX (Motorola KVL) connectors can be modified by soldering an AC101 or AC102 Hirose pigtail in parallel with the MX connector according to [these](doc/MX_CONN_MOD_NOTES.md) instructions.

Operations encapsulated with encryption (commonly referred to as FIPS mode) are not supported at this time for either the KFD or MR emulation modes.

Hardware
--------

Assembled and tested KFDtool hardware is available from me directly. I can ship internationally. Please visit the [online store](https://kfdtool.com/store) to place an order.

**Proceeds from hardware sales enables me to further develop the software.**

Note about hardware:

I request that no one else manufactures identical or compatible units **and sells them to others while I am still doing so** - I have put quite a bit of my own money into developing this hardware. I am totally fine with someone making a unit for themselves or a couple of extras to give to their friends, just that they don't charge for them. Proceeds from hardware sales enables me to further develop the software.
