Gallagher OpenSSL Cryptographic Module
Gallagher OpenSSL Cryptographic Module, from Gallagher Group, holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #4112 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.
Caveat: When operated in FIPS mode. No assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys.
