Frequently Asked Questions
What is FIPS 140-2 validation?
FIPS 140-2 is a U.S. government standard that specifies the security requirements for cryptographic modules. Validation means that the module has been tested and certified by an accredited lab to meet these stringent security requirements.
Who needs a FIPS-compliant network management solution?
Organizations that handle sensitive data, operate in regulated industries (like finance or healthcare), or work with government entities often require FIPS compliance to meet legal and security mandates.
What is the difference between Prime Infrastructure and the FIPS version?
The FIPS version of Prime Infrastructure includes cryptographic modules that have undergone FIPS 140-2 validation, ensuring it meets specific federal security standards not present in the standard version.
