Hello all,
I am writing some security documentation for work. A question came up
about whether or not the Linux security packages used for
authentication (krb5) and key management (RSA/DSA for SSH) were FIPS
compliant.
I don't really know. I know that Kerberos v5 is FIPS compliant and I
know that SSH v2 is FIPS compliant. However, are the Linux packages
FIPS compliant?
Any ideas how I would verify if they are or not?
Would they be compliant because the underlying algorithm is compliant?
Thanks for any insight.
