FIPS-140-2 Evaluation

At BAE Systems Detica we provide FIPS-140-2 evaluation and consulting support services. Our consultants are among the best in the world and can provide effective assessments in a timely manner.

The Detica lab is an accredited Cryptographic and Security Testing (CST) laboratory in full compliance with the CMVP requirements for CST laboratories and uses the Derived Test Requirements (DTR), Implementation Guidance (IG) and applicable CMVP programmatic guidance to test against the FIPS140-2 standard.

We can work with your company to deliver validated Cryptographic Modules:

  • in the shortest possible timeframe;
  • with the least amount of impact on your organisation and development team; and
  • in a manner which can be leveraged to incorporate future releases and product modifications to maximise the value from your investment.

All cryptographic testing tasks are conducted in accordance with the Detica quality framework and to an agreed scope. All cryptographic testing related tasks are performed by personnel approved as testers within the CMVP.

All work is principally carried out in the Detica facilities to ensure conformance with quality and security procedures. However, upon request by vendor, the testing may also be carried out at the vendor’s premises.

Detica has a team of leading security evaluation and testing professionals. We have assembled a premier team of technical assurance experts with extensive experience in all aspects of FIPS 140-2 testing and assurance activities. Our FIPS testers have been involved in conducting and supporting formal testing in all relevant roles in the testing lifecycle: developer, consultant and tester, providing us with a broad range of skills and expertise to help our clients effectively navigate the testing process.
