Cloudian cryptographic module

FIPS 140-2 certificate #3663 · Cloudian, Inc. · data as of 2026-10-09

Cloudian cryptographic module, from Cloudian, Inc., holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #3663 at overall level 1. The validation is historical: agencies may keep the module in existing systems but not buy it new. Below are its validation history, algorithm certificates and security policy, drawn from the NIST CMVP entry.

Historical. Moved to historical list due to sunsetting. Federal agencies may reference historical validations for existing systems only, not for new procurement.
Caveat: When operated in FIPS mode. No assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys. This validation entry is a non-security-relevant modification to Cert. #2398.

Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

Cloudian cryptographic module is an element of Cloudian HyperStore. Cloudian HyperStore is a software-defined object storage platform that provides a secure multi-tenant data store for unstructured data. HyperStore object storage can be deployed and scaled out as a global cluster of nodes to deliver capacity storage which scales seamlessly. It's the industry's most compatible S3 API based object storage solution.
