Selecting secure products is the responsibility of every federal organization. The U.S. National Institute of Standards (NIST) and the Communications Security Establishment (CSE) of the Government of Canada have established approved cryptographic algorithms for federal agencies. COACT can perform tests on your product to see if it meets the requirements of the following FIPS 140-2 approved algorithms:
| Algorithm Name |
Proper Usage |
| AES (FIPS 197) |
Data Encryption |
| Triple-DES (FIPS 46-3) |
Data Encryption |
| DSA (FIPS 186-2) |
Digital Signatures |
| RSA (FIPS 186-2) |
Digital Signatures |
| ECDSA (FIPS 186-2) |
Digital Signatures |
| SHS (SHA-1, SHA- 224, 256, 384 and 512) |
Hash Functions |
| HMAC (FIPS 198) |
Hash Functions |
| CCM (SP 800-38C) |
