FIPS 140-2 Level 2
The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), acting for the Department of Commerce and in concert with the Communications Security Establishment Canada (CSEC), issues FIPS 140-2 (entitled "Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules.") validations based on product evaluations conducted by independent, NVLAP-accredited Cryptographic and Security Testing (CST) laboratories. The FIPS 140-2 standard defines four levels of security (1 thru 4); most validated software-based encryption modules meet Level 1 requirements, although a few attain Level 2 accreditation, which includes additional requirements such as role-based access control. The Lumension® Cryptographic Kernel (LCK), which provides the core ciphering capabilities of Lumension® Device Control, has been FIPS 140-2 Level 2 validated (certificate no. 1567). Read the press release here, or see the Lumension® Cryptographic Kernel Validation Certificate and the FIPS 140-2 validation listing. For more information about this accreditation, please see FIPS 140-2 Validated Encryption. |

Security Content Automation Protocol
The Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) is a repository of security content used for automating technical control compliance activities, vulnerability checking of both application mis-configurations and software flaws, and security measurement. It is sponsored by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and is key to validating compliance with Federal Desktop Core Configuration (FDCC) requirements. Lumension® Security Configuration Management is a validated FDCC scanner, able to audit and assess target systems to determine their compliance with FDCC requirements. To learn more about how Lumension helps organizations meet SCAP and FDCC requirements, please see the Lumension SCAP page and the Lumension FDCC page. For more background information, please see the NIST SCAP page and the NIST FDCC page. |
