Oracle WebLogic must utilize FIPS 140-2 approved encryption modules when authenticating users and processes.
Description
Discussion Text
Encryption is only as good as the encryption modules utilized. Unapproved cryptographic module algorithms cannot be verified and cannot be relied upon to provide confidentiality or integrity, and DoD data may be compromised due to weak algorithms.
FIPS 140-2 is the current standard for validating cryptographic modules, and NSA Type-X (where X=1, 2, 3, 4) products are NSA-certified hardware-based encryption modules.
Application servers must provide FIPS-compliant encryption modules when authenticating users and processes.
