Apple changed the names of the modules under FIPS 140-2 certification and everything has finally passed the first step. All four are now under Review Pending. I'm guessing 2-4 months left???

I'll let Shawn discuss what each of these mean. This should now give him time to work on a 10.8 security manual.
---Once the iOS modules are certified, Blackberry managers won't be able to use the lack of FIPS certification to keep iPhone/iPads from entering government installations in mass.
