FIPS 140-3 marks a significant shift in cryptographic security standards, but how does it differ from 140-2 and 140-1, and why is compliance so important? In this episode, we explore the history of FIPS, the key updates in 140-3, and what they mean for organizations. We also discuss the steps companies need to take to achieve compliance and the impact these changes have on security and risk management. Whether you're just getting started or looking to stay ahead, this episode has you covered.

The Encryption Edge – Your go-to podcast for all things encryption, cybersecurity, and data protection. Whether you're an industry expert or just getting started, we break down complex topics like cryptography, PKI, post-quantum security, and cloud encryption in a way that's easy to understand. Stay ahead of emerging threats, compliance requirements, and the latest security trends with expert insights and practical advice from Encryption Consulting.

Digital certificate industry veterans Tim Callan and Jason Soroko explore the issues surrounding digital identity, PKI, and cryptographic connections in today's dynamic and evolving computing world. Best practices in digital certificates are continually under pressure from technology trends, new laws and regulations, cryptographic advances, and the evolution of our computing architectures to be more virtual, agile, ubiquitous, and cloud-based. Jason and Tim (and the occasional guest subject matter expert) will help you stay current on developments in this essential technology platform and to understand the whys and wherefores of popular Public Key Infrastructures.
