Rafay Systems announced the availability of Federal Information Processing
Standard (FIPS) 140-2 compliance for its self-hosted controller. With this
certification, public sector customers can securely deploy the Rafay Platform
in GovCloud and other highly sensitive environments while meeting strict
federal security standards. Rafay's ISV customers can also leverage the
FIPS-compliant self-hosted controller to deliver their cloud-native apps to
public sector customers.
Developed
by the National Institute
of Standards and Technology (NIST), FIPS 140-2 is a critical security benchmark in the
U.S. and Canada that ensures the protection of sensitive data in cloud-native
applications through certified cryptographic modules. For many customers, FIPS
compliance is essential for operating in government-regulated
environments.
"Federal
customers maintain a very high bar for security and encryption, making FIPS
140-2 compliance a key requirement for any platform they deploy," said Srinivas
Superaneni, president and CEO at 24X7 Systems. "With Rafay's self-hosted
controller now complying with the FIPS 140-2 standard, we can confidently
deliver solutions to public sector clients, ensuring compliance without
compromising on performance."
"We
recognize the growing demand for secure, compliant solutions and are proud to
help our government and enterprise customers meet these requirements
seamlessly," said Mohan Atreya, Chief Product Officer at Rafay Systems.
"The FIPS 140-2 certification demonstrates our dedication to robust
security. By delivering a FIPS-compliant platform, we empower our federal
customers to leverage our solutions confidently in highly-regulated
environments."
