[openssl-users] FIPS 140-2 on iOS

[Sec_Aficionado]

Hi there,

Total n00b question here. I recently ran across a question on an iOS forum where someone was building an app with FIPS 140-2 compliant communications.

Now, from reading here (mailing lists) about FIPS certification, it involves both the bits and the platform. So it would not be possible to create an app that is compliant on a platform that hasn't been certified. Is that a correct assumption? Or can I build a compliant app with just certified libraries?

Thanks!
