Maintaining FIPS Validation: Shifting from BitLocker to VeraCrypt with wolfCrypt

In September of 2026, the Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP) will move all remaining FIPS 140-2 certificates to the Historical List, including the modules powering Windows BitLocker. For organizations navigating FIPS, CMMC, and FedRAMP, this is an immediate critical stop, as NIST guidance states federal agencies “should not include” Historical-status modules in new procurements, and […]

FIPS with Statically-Linked wolfSSL

Many FIPS deployments of wolfSSL’s FIPS 140-3 validated wolfCrypt module use dynamic linking to load the shared object / DLL. However, sometimes it is necessary for some types of projects to statically link the libwolfssl.a static archive directly into an executable or firmware image. This post explains why static linking takes a little extra care, […]
