Does anyone know if Squid is FIPS certified?

FIPS certification does not apply to Squid as Squid is not a cryptographic module.


OpenSSL (the cryptographic module used by Squid for SSL accelerator support) is being FIPS certified however. For more information on OpenSSL FIPS certification see the following link:

  http://oss-institute.org/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=39&Itemid=

which also documents how to build your software (i.e. Squid) to comply with this pending FIPS certification.
