The Georgia Softworks FIPS 140-2 Compliant Windows SSH Server and Clients was designed for the United States Military to keep the most sensitive data safe.
FIPS 140-2 Compliant Windows SSH Server and Clients
Federal Information Processing Standards "FIPS" 140-2
GSW's SSH Server and SSH Client provide a "FIPS" 140-2 compliant option for those entities with requirements to meet cryptographic module security standards to protect sensitive and valuable data. FIPS certification standards are either mandated or recommended for use in federal government information technology (IT) systems. In addition to all the security benefits of the GSW SSH Server you can also have FIPS 140-2 compliance.
Under contract with the United States Military, GSW developed an End-to-End SSH FIPS 140-2 compliant solution, Client and Server to meet their requirements.
GSW is able to make this FIPS 140-2 compliant solution commercially available for other Federal and State agencies, as well as institutions and private enterprises with the need to comply with government grade security requirements.
Many companies have strong security requirements such as SSH encryption or FIPS 140-2. If you have demanding security requirements, the GSW SSH with the FIPS 140-2 compliant option may be of interest to you. Secure Shell (SSH) version 2 provides a secure channel for remote access to your Windows host.
Georgia SoftWorks SSH Server for Windows is optimized for Windows Systems including Windows 7/8/10 and Windows Server 2003/2008/2012/R2/2016.

Sometimes vendors of incomplete solutions will claim that since the devices' operating system is FIP 140-2 compliant that any SSH client running on it is FIPS 140-2 automatically compliant too.
This is NOT TRUE
Do not believe it. The SSH client does not automatically inherit all the operating system qualities. Just as having a 64-bit operating system, does not make all the applications 64-bit applications, a FIPS 140-2 compliant OS does not make the client FIPS 140-2 compliant.
However it is true that a FIPS 140-2 client must run on a FIPS 140-2 compliant operating system or internally contain all FIPS 140-2 certified cryptographic modules.
These are critical distinctions, that make the difference in being FIPS 140-2 compliant or not.
The GSW FIPS Compliant SSH Server and clients are FIPS 140-2 compliant when running on FIPS 140-2 compliant operating systems.

With respect to the client device operating system, the significant aspect is that the version of the cryptographic module rsaenh.dll must be NIST(National Institute of Standards and Technology) certified, which begins with build 14343.0.0.0. With Windows CE 5.0 extra attention should be taken to ensure the correct version of rsaenh.dll is present. Per information from Microsoft support early versions of Windows CE 5.0 did not come with a FIPS 140-2 certified version of rsaenh.dll. This may require contacting the device vendor to determine the correct version number of that cryptographic module.

VERY POWERFUL TOOL
Minimize problems from the start. If they are not supposed to be on your server - Don't let them on! If they are allowed on to perform a job, let them perform the job and not be distracted with other options. |
