Title

The Voice Video Endpoint processing unclassified information must implement NIST FIPS-validated cryptography to provision digital signatures. (Cat I impact)

Discussion

Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms undermines the purposes of utilizing encryption to protect data. The network element must implement cryptographic modules adhering to the higher standards approved by the federal government since this provides assurance they have been tested and validated.

Check Content
