VIEW FIPS

Penumbra Security is accredited by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP Laboratory Code 200983) for test methods for FIPS 140-2 Levels 1-4, Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules, and for testing of Approved security functions.

FIPS 140-2 is the primary standard used by organizations, including Federal Agencies, who implement cryptographic-based security systems that provide protection for sensitive or valuable data. A FIPS 140-2 certification assures that a module meets one of four levels of security requirements. Certification opens the door for a module to be used by both the government and regulated industries that handle sensitive information. All validations to FIPS 140-2 are conducted under the NIST developed Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP). Penumbra also offers evaluations to the ISO/IEC 19790 second edition 2012 08 15 Information technology – Security techniques – Security requirements for cryptographic modules.

VIEW PIV

The data contained within smartcards is often personal and/or critical and so there are a wide number of organizations that are involved in creating national & international standards. FIPS 201 provides an outline of the standards needed for the evaluations in order to achieve PIV certification. Many of these standards are set or developed by the ISO/IEC group while ANSI recommends specific standards for the needs of the U.S. and supervises their development. Penumbra Security provides the following services: Plastic Card & Smartcard durability testing as required by the PIV & CAC programs Printer Station durability testing Guidance for achieving product durability certification FIPS 201-1, ANSI 322, ISO/IEC 7810/7811/7816/10373/14443

Testing often involves analysis of the smartcard's physical characteristics and durability testing such as: Abrasion Testing (Barcode, Magnetic Stripe & Image) Delamination Testing Flex Stress (ANSI & ISO) Impact Resistance UV & Daylight Exposure Temperature & Humidity Exposure
