Corsec would like to congratulate our partner, NVIDIA Corporation, on completing the Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 140-3 (FIPS 140-3) validation process on their H100 Tensor Core GPU. Completion of the FIPS 140-3 validation process provides reassurance and third-party confirmation that the product meets rigorous government security requirements for protecting sensitive data.
To achieve this benchmark, NVIDIA partnered with Corsec, completing the validation at a Level 2 as seen in certificate #5446. For more information on the validation and to find additional details on the module’s security policy, visit NIST’s validated modules site.
To learn how to engineer your product to meet federal and regulated industry requirements—and avoid common certification delays, schedule time to speak to a Corsec engineer.
About FIPS 140
FIPS 140-2 / FIPS 140-3 are a joint effort by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the United States and the Communications Security Establishment Canada (CSEC), under the Canadian government. The Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP), headed by NIST, provides module and algorithm testing for FIPS 140, which applies to Federal agencies using validated cryptographic modules to protect sensitive government data in computer and telecommunication systems. FIPS 140 provides stringent third-party assurance of security claims on any product containing cryptography that may be purchased by a government agency.
FIPS 140 is mandated by law in the U.S. and very strictly enforced in Canada. FIPS 140 has gained worldwide recognition as an important benchmark for third party validations of encryption products of all kinds. A FIPS 140 validation of a product provides end users with a high degree of product security, assurance, and dependability.
About the NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPU
H100 is part of the complete NVIDIA data center solution that incorporates building blocks across hardware, networking, software, libraries, and optimized AI models and applications from the NVIDIA NGC™ catalog. The second-generation Multi-Instance GPU (MIG), built-in NVIDIA confidential computing, and NVIDIA NVLink Switch System allows the H100 to securely accelerate workloads.
