Software
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Description
The OpenSSL FIPS Runtime Module is a general purpose cryptographic library designed to provide FIPS 140-2 validated cryptographic functionality for use with the high level API of the OpenSSL library.
Tested Configuration(s)
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 running on Dell PowerEdge R430 with an Intel(R) Xeon(R) E5 with PAA
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 running on Dell PowerEdge R430 with an Intel(R) Xeon(R) E5 without PAA (single-user mode)
