Learn the 3 Easy Steps to Encrypt Android & iOS Data with FIPS 140-2. Meet NIST & FirstNet encryption requirements. No Code, No SDK, Continuous Security.
The Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 140-2 (FIPS 140-2) is a U.S. government computer security standard used to approve cryptographic modules.
This Knowledge Base article provides a survey of Appdome’s FIPS functionality and explains how to add FIPS 140-2 Cryptographic modules to any mobile app – instantly, without coding.
We hope you find it useful and enjoy using Appdome!
Adding FIPS 140-2 Cryptographic Modules is part of the Appdome Mobile Security Suite. You can find it under TOTALDataTM Encryption. Appdome uses the FIPS 140-2 certified versions of the commercially available encryption libraries. These libraries (OpenSSL’s libcrypto and libssl) have themselves undergone FIPS certification.
Appdome is a mobile integration platform as a service (iPaaS) that allows users to add a wide variety of features, SDKs, and APIs to Android and iOS apps. Using a simple ‘click to add’ user interface, Appdome allows anyone to easily implement FIPS 140-2 Compliant Cryptographic Modules to any mobile app – instantly, no code or coding required.
