Which JCE providers are FIPS 140-2 compliant?

According to this information on this page:

  1. IBM and RSA have FIPS 140-2 validated JCE providers.
  2. BouncyCastle have FIPS 140-2 validated JCE providers for Java 7 & 8. (See The Legion of the Bouncy Castle - FIPS Resources Page. Donations are encouraged!)
  3. Sun's JCE providers are not on the list of FIPS 140-2 validated modules.

However, Oracle do have a validated module called "Oracle Cryptographic Libraries for SSL". The description does not say this is a JCE provider ... but it might be.

Also, Oracle don't appear to have any "modules in progress" for FIPS 140-2 validation.


According to this page, java 6 can be made FIPS 140 compliant via either NSS or SunJSSE.
