Tools

• fips_cert ~131 tokens
  Look up one FIPS 140 cryptographic module validation by certificate number. Returns status (active, historical or revoked), overall level, sunset date, validation history, approved algorithms and tested configurations.
• fips_cve ~253 tokens
  Which FIPS-validated modules are associated with a given CVE, or which CVEs are associated with a vendor's modules. Answers 'we have a validated module, is it caught up in this advisory'. The association is name-based against the product CPE, so read it as a pointer to check rather than a finding. A
• fips_in_process ~189 tokens
  Search NIST's Modules in Process queue: submissions awaiting FIPS 140-3 validation, with the review phase each one is sitting in. Use this when a vendor claims a validation is 'coming' and you need to know whether it has actually been submitted, and how far along it is.
• fips_search ~244 tokens
  Search FIPS 140 validations by module name or vendor. Use this to answer whether a given product or vendor holds a current validation, and at what level. Results are ordered by status, then how well they match, then newest first, so the current validations lead.
• fips_sunset ~217 tokens
  List active FIPS validations by sunset date, the day each moves to NIST's historical list and stops being valid for new procurement. Answers 'what expires before date X' and 'which vendors are about to have nothing valid'. A certificate listed here may already have a 140-3 successor: check fips_sear
• fips_vendor ~234 tokens
  Everything one company holds, grouped across the spelling variants NIST filed it under. Cisco alone appears as three different strings. Returns a breakdown by status and standard plus the certificates themselves. Note this groups spellings of one registration, not corporate families: the nShield lin
