Greetings,

We have a need for a FIPS140-2 compliant FreeBSD kernel plus keymanager.

Has anyone done this before?

My (naïve?) approach is to replace the crypto-dev driver with an openssl 
fipscanister based crypto driver, use a second application layer openssl 
fipscanister for the key manager crypto and remove all non-fips crypto from the 
kernel.

Unsure if FIPs allows two copies of fipscanister.

Design is always easier when one is ignorant.

regards
