Corsec would like to congratulate our partner, Hitachi Vantara, LLC, on completing the Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 140-2 (FIPS 140-2<\/a><\/span>) validation process on their Hitachi Vantara Cryptographic Library.<\/p>\n To achieve this milestone, Hitachi Vantara partnered with Corsec, completing a Level 1 validation as seen in certificate #4239<\/a>.

The Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP), headed by NIST, provides module and algorithm testing for FIPS 140, which applies to Federal agencies using validated cryptographic modules to protect sensitive government data in computer and telecommunication systems. FIPS 140 provides stringent third-party assurance of security claims on any product containing cryptography that may be purchased by a government agency.<\/span><\/p>\n FIPS, which is mandated by law in the U.S. and very strictly enforced in Canada, is also currently being reviewed by ISO to become an international standard. FIPS 140 has gained worldwide recognition as an important benchmark for third party validations of encryption products of all kinds. A FIPS 140 validation of a product provides end users with a high degree of product security, assurance, and dependability.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Hitachi Vantara, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd., guides their customers from what\u2019s now to what\u2019s next by solving their digital challenges.
