FAQ
  • 1.What Is FIPS 140-2?
    FIPS is the Federal Information Processing Standard, a suite of several documented standards that specify how electronic information shall be stored, processed and protected within the framework of government-operated information and computing systems. The FIPS documents are managed jointly by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the U.S. and the Communications Security Establishment (CSE) of Canada. In the U.S., the publications exist under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Commerce.
    Specifically, the FIPS 140-2 publication describes requirements for design, implementation and testing of “cryptographic modules.” FIPS 140-2 describes approved encryption algorithms, requirements to secure and attest to the authenticity of SSD firmware, requirements to authenticate user identities with regard to their role or identity, and the creation, management and protection of encryption keys and passcodes. FIPS 140-2 also describes how a storage device must interact with other components of a compute or data storage system. Many of the requirements for TCG Security Subsystem Class (SSC) Opal and SSC Enterprise are incorporated into the FIPS requirement, so TCG drives are often the first step toward FIPS validation.
  • 2.What Is Meant by a FIPS 140-2 Level 2 Validation?
    FIPS 140-2 Level 2 Validation is typical for data storage devices. Advantech SQFF840 and SQFF920 SSD have met Level 2 requirements. The FIPS 140-2 Level 2 requirements help ensure that the SSD encryption algorithms follow predefined and accepted standards. FIPS 140-2 describes role-based user authentication, boot time firmware identity attestation, and provisions for tamper-evident seals or labels. For more details, please refer to the Advantech’s SQFF series product sheet

    Within the framework of FIPS 140-2, there are four levels, with cumulative requirements:
    Level 1: Certification of encryption engine and associated firmware
    Level 2: Tamper-evident seals to protect access; role-based authentication requirements
    Level 3: Tamper-resistant casing (tamper response may include zeroing of all critical security parameters [CSP]); identity-based authentication requirements
    Level 4: Robust tamper resistance and intrusion response; compulsory zeroing of CSPs on intrusion detection; hardened casing for unanticipated environmental conditions
  • 3.Is There a Site That Lists FIPS 140-2 Validated SEDs?
  • 4.Is FIPS 140-2 Required By My Application?
    Previously, actual policy requirements for FIPS 140-2 validated SEDs are limited to government owned or government-controlled compute and data storage systems, mostly within the U.S. and Canada. However, many private firms in healthcare, financial services and other industries that manage sensitive or confidential data are finding it beneficial to add FIPS 140-2 validated data storage devices to their system requirements as an added and documented way to ensure compliance with federal regulations on data security and customer privacy.
  • 5.Is There a FIPS 140-3?
    FIPS 140-3 was published on March 22, 2019, and will start to take certification applications from Q4, 2021. https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/detail/fips/140/3/final Advantech is working closely with the certification lab to acquire up-to-date application information and plan FIPS 140-3 certification for next generation SSD products.
