FIPS Mode details

Post by gman42 »

Is there a specific list of what ciphers, etc. are specifically allowed/disallowed when the box is checked to enable FIPS mode?

Also, when making changes to the various algorithms from the SSH/SFTP settings page, does this override the FIPS mode settings, or vice versa?

There isn't a list as it changes quite often, unannounced.

With DH/KEX and MACs its all except for a few outdated group1/sha1 algs.
With ciphers, its mainly AES only.

Any custom changes to the DH/Cipher/Mac settings will override FIPS settings.
