Anecdotally, I've heard that there are many, but almost all of them were done by vendors for embedding in their proprietary products.

While at the NIST FIPS 140 site earlier today (looking for that mysterious
nCipher certificate), I noticed that certificate #350 was issued last
Friday -- for "IBM Crypto for C (ICC)".

I think that the interesting thing about this crypto [SW] module and cert
is that it's based on OpenSSL. I know we've discussed the [forthcoming]
validation of OpenSSL itself, and we know about the Crypto++ and
Netscape/Sun/Mozilla open source crypto modules, but my question now is,
are there any other "OpenSSL-based" FIPS 140 validated crypto modules, or
is this the first?

Disclaimer: although I'm employed by IBM, I had nothing to with this
validation or with ICC (it's a big place)
