Enabling FIPS Compliance in Perl, Python, and PHP

You can enable FIPS 140-2 compliance in Perl, Python, and PHP.

To enable FIPS compliance in Perl, Python, and PHP, set the FIPSMode connection property to true.
When FIPS compliance is enabled on Microsoft Windows, the preferred base address to be loaded in memory is 0xFB00000. This is to avoid a base address conflict arising from the OpenSSL incore fingerprint integrity check.
Note: Initialization fails with "FIPS fingerprint check failed" error if this preferred base address is not available.
