FIPS 140-2 certificate #4599 · Intel Corporation · data as of 2026-09-13

Cryptographic Module for Intel® Platforms' Security Engine Chipset, from Intel Corporation, holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #4599 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.

Historical. Moved to historical list due to sunsetting. Federal agencies may reference historical validations for existing systems only, not for new procurement.
Caveat: When operated in FIPS mode and installed, initialized and configured as specified in Sections 2.3 and 9.1 of the Security Policy. When entropy is externally loaded, no assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys.
