Ug, only FIPS validated on iPhone/ARM:
Mocana applied for and received FIPS 140-2 Level 1 validation for its NanoCrypto product (http://mocana.com/nanocrypto.html) compiled for iPhone OS on ARM-based CPUs.
It will run on iPad, but it appears not to be FIPS validated on ipad.
I wonder what's going on with Apple's FIPs validation? Maybe they contracted to an Elbonian company to perform the testing.
