FIPS 140 Validated Cryptography Software
for Microsoft .NET Applications

Secure Your Microsoft .NET Applications with FIPS 140 Validated Software from SafeLogic

Microsoft’s .NET framework and C# language power mission-critical applications across government, defense, and enterprise environments. But without FIPS 140-validated encryption, these systems fail to meet government and regulatory security mandates.

CryptoComply .NET delivers FIPS 140-validated cryptography, purpose-built for Microsoft .NET environments. It lets developers integrate .NET FIPS-compliant algorithms into their applications without rewriting code or managing years-long validation projects.

Why .NET for FIPS-Certified Cryptography?

.NET Cryptographic Framework

The .NET ecosystem provides a secure, cross-platform foundation for enterprise applications. CryptoComply .NET strengthens that foundation with pre-validated FIPS 140 cryptography that meets government-grade requirements.

Benefits of Using .NET in Regulated Environments

  • Enterprise-grade security: Microsoft’s Common Language Runtime (CLR) offers memory safety and managed code security.
  • Cross-platform flexibility: Works across Windows, Linux, and cloud environments using .NET Core and .NET 8.
  • Performance at scale: Optimized for parallel workloads and cryptographic performance.
  • Strong developer ecosystem: Backed by Microsoft’s extensive tooling, documentation, and support community.

What is CryptoComply .NET?

CryptoComply .NET is SafeLogic’s FIPS 140 validated cryptographic software designed for .NET and C# environment. It provides a drop-in solution that enables .NET developers to meet the highest U.S. and international standards for data protection.

Developers can easily integrate CryptoComply .NET into their existing architecture, enabling Microsoft FIPS-compliant encryption without code rewrites, performance compromises, or compliance delays.

FIPS 140 Validation for .NET Applications

FIPS 140 is the U.S. government’s cryptographic module standard, required for federal procurements and foundational to other compliance regimes, such as FedRAMP, CMMC, and Common Criteria.

Any vendor developing security software for federal or regulated use must leverage .NET FIPS-compliant algorithms that have been validated by NIST’s Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP).

Using FIPS 140 Compliant Cryptography vs. Obtaining Your Own Validation

Using compliant cryptography:
Your application uses a FIPS-validated cryptographic module within the configurations covered by its FIPS 140 certificate.

Customer-owned validation:
Your organization obtains a CMVP certificate associated with its own company and product, providing greater procurement visibility and control over the validation lifecycle.

Why .NET FIPS Validation is the Safer, Smarter Path

For any organization serious about serving the public sector or regulated markets, having your own CMVP certificate confirms:

  • Visibility in federal procurement processes
  • Compliance with layered frameworks like FedRAMP, CMMC, and Common Criteria
  • Long-term control over updates and maintenance

CryptoComply .NET gives you a direct path to your own certificate, without the complexity and delays of a traditional multi-year validation timeline. SafeLogic handles the lifecycle, so you stay secure, validated, and ready for government opportunities.
