Designing to FIPS-140: A Guide for Engineers and Programmers

by David Johnston Richard Fant

This book provides detailed and practical information for practitioners to understand why they should choose certification. It covers the pros and cons, and shows how to design to comply with the specifications (FIPS-140, SP800 documents, and related international specs such as AIS31, GM/T-0005-2021, etc.). It also covers how to perform compliance testing. By the end of the book, you will know how to interact with accredited certification labs and with related industry forums (CMUF, ICMC). In short, the book covers everything you need to know to make sound designs.There is a process for FIPS-140 (Federal Information Processing Standard) certification for cryptographic products sold to the US government. And there are parallel certifications in other countries, resulting in a non-trivial and complex process. A large market of companies has grown to help companies navigate the FIPS-140 certification process. And there are accredited certification labs you must contract toget the certification.Although this was once a fairly niche topic, it is no longer so. Other industries—banking, military, healthcare, air travel, and more—have adopted FIPS certification for cryptographic products. The demand for these services has grown exponentially. Still, the available skills pool has not grown. Many people are working on products with zero usable information on what to do to meet these standards and achieve certification or even understand if such certification applies to their products. What You Will Learn What is FIPS-140? What is the SP800 standard?What is certification? What does it look like? What is it suitable for?What is NIST? What does it do?What do accredited certification labs do?What do certification consultants do?Where and when is certification required?What do FIPS-140 modules look like?What are the sub-components of FIPS-140 modules (RNGs, PUFs, crypto functions)? How does certification work for them?What are the physical primitives (RNGs, PUFs, key stores) and how do you handle the additional complexity of certifying them under FIPS?What are the compliance algorithms (AES, SP800-90 algos, SHA, ECDSA, key agreement, etc.)?How do you design for certification (BIST, startup tests, secure boundaries, test access, zeroization, etc.)?How do you get CAVP certificates (cert houses, ACVTs)?How do you get CMVP certifications (cert houses, required documents, design information, security policy, etc.)? Who This Book Is For Hardware and software engineers or managers of engineering programs that include any form of cryptographic functionality, including silicon vendors, library vendors, OS vendors, and system integrators

Beyond Tragedy: A Story of Shanann Watts

by Vonda Knox

When Shanann opened her eyes the world was foggy. Something was terribly wrong yet she wasn’t certain what had happened. Her grandmother, who had passed long ago, was standing in her kitchen surrounded by brilliant light and an indescribable fragrance. With great love Gran handed Nico to Shanann and she marveled over her precious newborn son as her three-year-old daughter CeCe happily danced around the room. <P><P>Longing to go with Gran, Shanann moved towards the light until she suddenly realized that her older daughter, four-year-old Bella, was not with them. Shanann was greatly comforted when Gran took Nico and CeCe into a place of safety and love, yet all faded into confusion and a desperate urgency when they left and she was consumed by her need to find Bella. Shanann was quite surprised, yet very comforted when she discovered Speaks With Stars, a Native American man, drumming by his fire in her front yard, a place his people had known for centuries before Shanann and her husband Chris, purchased their home in Frederick, Colorado. <P><P>Speaks With Stars let Shanann know that she was not alone and that he would be by her side. With his guidance and wisdom Shanann came to realize that she and her three children had been brutally murdered, and she now must reconcile herself to the events that were thrust upon her physical life, and the new journey of self-realization and wonder that had begun.
