Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the Federal Information Processing Standard ?

  The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Publication 140-2 is a U.S. government standard. FIPS is based on Section 5131 of the Information Technology Management Reform Act of 1996. It defines the minimum security requirements for cryptographic modules in IT products.

• Who can use FIPS publications?

  FIPS publications may be adopted and used by non-federal government organizations and private sector organizations. An individual FIPS publication may use document conventions to state requirements, recommended options, or permissible actions within the publication (e.g., ‘shall,’ ‘should,’ or ‘may’).

• What is FIPS Publication 140-2?

  The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Publication 140-2 is a U.S. government standard. FIPS is based on Section 5131 of the Information Technology Management Reform Act of 1996.

• What is the shelf life of your FIPS Security labels?

  Our FIPS security labels are suitable for indoor applications for at least 5 years and outdoor applications for up to 2 years. The silver metallic holograms may not be suitable for use on printed circuit boards (or other electrical applications). The silver metallic layer is conductive and may cause issues if in direct contact with the circuitry.

• What is CMVP ?

  On July 17, 1995, NIST established the Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP) that validates cryptographic modules to Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS)140-1, Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules, and other FIPS cryptography based standards.

• What is a cryptographic Validation Certificate?

  It is important to note that validation certificates are issued for cryptographic modules. A module may either be an embedded component of a product or application, or a complete product in and of itself.

• How do I ask about the implementation/use of a validated cryptographic module?

  All questions regarding the implementation and/or use of any validated cryptographic module should first be directed to the appropriate VENDOR point of contact (listed for each entry). SEARCH our database of validated modules.

• What are the security requirements for a security level 1 cryptographic module?

  Basic security requirements are specified for a cryptographic module (e.g., at least one approved algorithm or approved security function shall be used). No specific physical security mechanisms are required in a Security Level 1 cryptographic module beyond the basic requirement for production-grade components.
