Quest Software and FIPS 140-2Quest Software is committed to product security and assurance. Quest plans on using FIPS 140-2 approved cryptographic modules in its products whenever possible. When this is not a possibility we will ensure that any Quest product that uses cryptography has support for FIPS 140-2 approved algorithms. These areas of cryptography include symmetric & asymmetric encryption, hashing, keyed hashing, message authentication, and random number generation. We intend to continue our ongoing discussions with our US Federal government customers to ensure that we understand the requirements and processes involved to meet the required cryptography standards.
