FIPS protocol option

Allows you to use FIPS-certified security algorithms to encrypt database files, database client/server communication, and web services.

Note

Separately licensed component required.

ECC encryption and FIPS-certified encryption require a separate license. All strong encryption technologies are subject to export regulations.

See Separately licensed components.

Syntax

{ FIPS }={ YES | NO }

FIPS-certified encryption is only supported for RSA encryption. Clients that do not have the fips protocol option enabled can connect to servers that do have the -fips option enabled and vice versa. This option can be used with end-to-end encryption.

If fips is set to YES, MobiLink clients use FIPS 140-2 certified implementations of RSA and AES. This option is not supported when using ECC.
