Re: Enable the FIPS mode in the library level

["Salz, Rich via openssl-users" <openssl-users@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

• Did you mean if an application uses the low level crypto algorithm functions (e.g. SHA256_Init/ SHA256_Update/ SHA256_Final) then they won't work under FIPS mode (and hence may cause unpredictable issues)?

 

Yes.

 

It’s not unpredictable issues, but rather that your application cannot claim to be FIPS validated.
