  "definition": "1. Explicitly defined continuous perimeter that establishes the physical and/or logical bounds of a cryptographic module and contains all the hardware, software, and/or firmware components of a cryptographic module.\n\n2. An explicitly defined contiguous perimeter that establishes the physical bounds around the set of hardware, software and firmware which is used to implement the TDEA and the associated cryptographic processes.\n\n3. An explicitly defined continuous perimeter that establishes the physical bounds of a cryptographic module and contains all hardware, software, and/or firmware components of a cryptographic module.\n\n4. An explicitly defined continuous perimeter that establishes the physical bounds of a cryptographic module and contains all the hardware, software, and/or firmware components of a cryptographic module.\n\n5. An explicitly defined continuous perimeter that establishes the physical bounds of a cryptographic module and contains all the hardware, software, and/or firmware components of a cryptographic module. See FIPS 140.\n\n6. An explicitly defined physical or conceptual perimeter that establishes the physical and/or logical bounds of a cryptographic module and contains all of the hardware, software, and/or firmware components of a cryptographic module.",
