Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 libgcrypt
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 libgcrypt, from Red Hat, Inc., holds FIPS 140-3 certificate #5366 at overall level 1. The validation is active, with a sunset date of 2029-08-08. Below are its validation history, algorithm certificates and security policy, drawn from the NIST CMVP entry.
Caveat: When operated in approved mode. The module generates SSPs (e.g., keys) whose strengths are modified by available entropy. No assurance of minimum security of SSPs (e.g., keys, bit strings) that are externally loaded, or of SSPs established with externally loaded SSPs.
