FIPS Encryption Libraries

In FIPS-only mode CA ControlMinder uses the CAPKI encryption library. On UNIX systems it uses the OS encryption library for password encryption (“crypt” method). In regular mode, CA ControlMinder uses the CAPKI 4.1.3 encryption library in addition to the non-FIPS encryption libraries.
