FIPS 140-2 Level 1 certification (in- process)
Mark,
Quite aware of the FIPS 140-2 requirements. As was stated several times by Mr. Randall Easter, Director CMVP, they have been able to claim FIPS 140-2 Validation Compliance (for the SW version) because the Crypto Module is the same that has already been validated -- they just go thru the formal paperwork and testing for a new platform. This was the same for the others -- PGP, CheckPoint from the moment of their original offering.
If folks have any question of that, please contact the CMVP folks for direct government-to-government verification of this statement.
Your statement is valid if in reference to the Seagate FDE HDD, but they are going thru FIPS 140-2 as well:
Isn't "in process" the same as "certified"? I thought I remember seeing that "in process" was just as good.
