FIPS 140-3 Cryptographic Module Status
This page tracks the FIPS 140-3 certification status of all cryptographic modules across RLC Pro Hardened versions.
Status Definitions
- CMVP (Validated/Certified) - The module has completed NIST validation and holds an active FIPS 140-3 certificate. It is approved for use in environments requiring FIPS compliance.
- MIP (Modules In Process) - The module has been approved by the testing lab and submitted to NIST for validation. The NIST review process typically takes at least 12 months. MIP modules have completed lab testing but are awaiting final NIST certification.
