The OpenSSL Management Committee (OMC) on behalf of the OpenSSL Project
is pleased to announce that the project is partnering with KeyPair Consulting
and Acumen Security to validate OpenSSL to meet the requirements
of the FIPS 140-3 standard.
After 2 years of forced covid break, OpenSSL once again presented at the ICMC22
conference. The conference was a very pleasant meet-up of the community around
cryptography and cryptographic modules. There were a lot of insights, feedback,
and discussions around IT security. OpenSSL gave a talk on the Current Status of
OpenSSL.
OpenSSL is celebrating our FIPS 140-2 certification with a special offer for
our Premium Support Customers by providing access to a free rebranding of the
OpenSSL 3.0 FIPS 140-2 certificate.
The OpenSSL Management Committee on behalf of the OpenSSL Project is pleased to
announce that the OpenSSL 3.0 FIPS Provider has had its FIPS 140-2 validation
certificate
issued by NIST & CSE.
We have previously talked about our plans for OpenSSL 3.0 and FIPS support
here. This blog
post will give an update about what has been happening since then.
