You shouldn’t have to give up Tailscale’s simplicity to meet FIPS 140-3 requirements.
Tailscale makes encrypted mesh networking remarkably easy to deploy, but its default cryptography does not use a FIPS 140-3 validated module. This can prevent deployment where validated cryptography is required.
Join this technical webinar to see a working Headscale deployment connecting two wolfScale nodes. You’ll see how wolfScale uses wolfGuard and wolfCrypt FIPS across the mesh while preserving familiar Tailscale CLI workflows, then follow the architecture behind the data path, coordination, relay communication, and certificate provisioning.
You’ll learn how to:
- Deploy a two-node wolfScale mesh with Headscale
- Apply FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography across the connection
- Protect data, coordination, DERP relay, and certificate paths
- Self-host networking infrastructure for isolated environments
- Understand what remains compatible—and what changes
- Support cryptographic requirements for FedRAMP, CJIS, and CMMC 2.0
Ask the Expert: Answers Key Questions
Our experts answer key questions about what attendees will learn
Why can’t standard Tailscale meet FIPS 140-3 requirements?
Tailscale’s default cryptography does not use a FIPS 140-3 validated module. wolfScale replaces the underlying cryptography with wolfGuard and wolfCrypt FIPS to support FedRAMP, CJIS, and CMMC 2.0 cryptographic requirements.
Where is FIPS-validated cryptography applied?
wolfScale applies it to the data path, coordination traffic, DERP communication, and certificate provisioning—not only the WireGuard data plane.
What will the working demonstration show?
The demonstration brings up Headscale, connects two wolfScale nodes, and verifies the mesh with an ICMP test. You’ll also see what remains compatible and what changes from upstream Tailscale and Headscale.
