    Calculate the lateral surface area of a secure transaction processing unit's cube-shaped hardware module to determine the minimum cooling surface required for maintaining optimal operating temperature during fraud detection operations, given the module's side length. The lateral surface area calculation is essential for preventing hardware overheating while processing high-volume transaction data.
