Phil Kemp on 21 Mar 13After looking through the website, I found the Vendor list for 140-2, which provides what I would think is the complete product list of Vendors and products which meet the standard. A couple items which meet the standard are Microsoft Windows 7 Bitlocker Drive Encryption, and Research In Motions Blackberry Cryptographic Kernel. It is important that the CMV Program is in place within the U.S. If we are going to rely on encryption to keep our secrets safe, then the products we use to encrypt our data, need to be checked to ensure they are secure.
