EXP1000 Hardware Security Module

FIPS 140-2 certificate #4086 · Futurex · data as of 2026-10-09

EXP1000 Hardware Security Module, from Futurex, holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #4086 at overall level 3. The validation is historical: agencies may keep the module in existing systems but not buy it new. Below are its algorithm certificates, its validation history, and the list moves this tracker has observed, which NIST does not date.

Historical. Moved to historical list due to sunsetting. Federal agencies may reference historical validations for existing systems only, not for new procurement. Observed moving to historical on 2026-09-22. It was one of the last FIPS 140-2 certificates, all moved at the 140-2 sunset on 2026-09-21.

Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

The EXP1000 Hardware Security Module (HSM) is a multi-chip embedded cryptographic module that provides secure data storage and crypto-processing functionality. The module is assembled from production quality components. All sensitive components of the module are physically protected by a tamper resistant, responsive, and evident casing where all cryptographic operations are performed.
