Hi,
Is Debian OS FIPS certified? Does it support FIPS Validated Cryptographic
Modules?
What I noticed is that FIPS mode can be enabled with the tool
fips-mode-setup
<https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/crypto-policies/fips-mode-setup.8.en.html>.
This tool is developed and can be used for other Linux distributions (SUSE,
Oracle Linux, RedHat, Ubuntu), in case the user wants to enable FIPS mode
afterwards (not part of OS). Does that mean that Debian can be configured
to use FIPS Validated Cryptographic Modules?
Thanks in advance.
