Raritan announced the first digital KVM switch with an embedded Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 certified encryption module, making it the most secure KVM-over-IP switch in the industry. Designed to protect sensitive information in data centers, the FIPS 140-2 Cryptographic Module in the Dominion KX II Release 2.2 encrypts KVM session traffic consisting of video, keyboard, mouse, virtual media and smart card data. The Cryptographic Module used by the Dominion KX II has been validated by the Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP) for FIPS 140-2 Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules, and other FIPS cryptography-based standards. The FIPS 140-2 Cryptographic Module is available on all Dominion KX II enterprise models with Release 2.2 firmware. The FIPS mode status is displayed on the KX II User Interface.
