Insider Brief
- enQase received FIPS 140-3 Certificate #5346 from the NIST Cryptographic Module Validation Program for its cryptographic module.
- The validated module provides standards-based cryptographic functions for networks, servers, edge devices, IoT systems, and enterprise applications.
- The certification supports enQase’s efforts to provide validated cryptographic capabilities for organizations preparing for post-quantum security requirements.
Press release – enQase, a pioneer in quantum security and crypto-agility, today announced that the Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP) has issued FIPS 140-3 Certificate #5346 for the enQase FIPS 140-3 Cryptographic Module.
The certificate, issued under the Federal Information Processing Standard 140-3, confirms that the enQase FIPS 140-3 Cryptographic Module has completed the NIST (National Institute of Standards & Technology) CMVP validation process. The module is listed by CMVP as an active FIPS 140-3 validated software cryptographic module, with an Overall Level 1 validation.
The enQase FIPS 140-3 Cryptographic Module is a standards-based cryptographic engine for networks, servers, appliances, edge devices, IoT, and enterprise applications. The module delivers FIPS 140-3 cryptographic functions that can support secure implementation across supported platforms.
“FIPS 140-3 validation is an important milestone for enQase and for organizations that require independently validated cryptographic capabilities,” said Rajesh Patil, CEO of enQase. “As enterprises, government agencies, and critical infrastructure providers prepare for a quantum-safe future, validated cryptographic modules are a foundational element of trust, compliance, and long-term security readiness.”
FIPS 140-3 is the current U.S. government standard for security requirements for cryptographic modules. Validation under the CMVP provides organizations with a recognized basis for evaluating cryptographic modules used to protect sensitive information.
“Together with enQase’s portfolio of 15 U.S. and international patents, this certificate reinforces enQase’s commitment to both innovation and practical, standards-aligned quantum security solutions,” Patil added. “As customers work to modernize cryptographic infrastructure and prepare for post-quantum requirements, FIPS 140-3 validation gives them added confidence that enQase is building on a trusted and verifiable foundation.”
The enQase FIPS 140-3 Cryptographic Module was validated by DEKRA Cybersecurity Certification Laboratory, is now fully activated.
