PAN-OS 9.0 Firewalls PA-220, PA-220R, PA-800 Series, PA-3000 Series, PA-3200 Series, PA-5200 Series, and PA-7000 Series
PAN-OS 9.0 Firewalls PA-220, PA-220R, PA-800 Series, PA-3000 Series, PA-3200 Series, PA-5200 Series, and PA-7000 Series, from Palo Alto Networks, Inc., holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #3884 at overall level 2. 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.
Caveat: When operated in FIPS mode and with the tamper evident seals and opacity shields installed as indicated in the Security Policy.
