eToken 5110+ FIPS

FIPS 140-2 certificate #4480 · Thales · data as of 2026-10-09

eToken 5110+ FIPS, from Thales, holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #4480 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.

SafeNet eToken 5110+ FIPS is a secure portable two-factor USB authenticator with advanced smart card technology. It utilizes certificate based technology to generate and store credentials, such as private keys, passwords and digital certificates inside the protected environment of the smart card chip. To authenticate, users must supply both their personal SafeNet authenticator and password, providing a critical second level of security beyond simple passwords to protect valuable digital business.
