Any OpenSSL update when FIPS object module v2.0 is released?

2012-04-23 Thread Kevin Fowler
When the validation is obtained for FIPS Object Module v2.0, and that
version is officially released, will there also be an update to OpenSSL? Or
are those two now independent as long as v1.0.1 is used with the FIPS
module?

Thanks,
Kevin

The new OpenSSL FIPS Object Module 2.0 will work with the currently
released OpenSSL 1.0.1.

That validation is currently stalled waiting on elaboration of a new
requirement that has been introduced by the CMVP. How long that will
take I don't know; probably several weeks.
