Secure Kernel Code Integrity

FIPS 140-2 certificate #4512 · Microsoft Corporation · data as of 2026-10-09

Secure Kernel Code Integrity, from Microsoft Corporation, holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #4512 at overall level 1. 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.
Caveat: When operated in FIPS mode with modules Windows OS Loader validated to FIPS 140-2 under Cert. #4339 operating in FIPS mode, Windows Resume validated to FIPS 140-2 under Cert. #4348 operating in FIPS mode, or TCB Launcher validated to FIPS 140-2 under Cert. #4457 operating in FIPS mode

Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

Secure Kernel Code Integrity (SKCI) running in the Virtual Secure Mode (VSM) of the Hyper-V hypervisor will only grant execute access to physical pages in the kernel that have been successfully verified. Executable pages will not have write permission outside of Hyper-V. Therefore, only verified code can be executed.

Security level exceptions

  • Physical Security: N/A
  • Design Assurance: Level 2
