Taking advantage of FIPS 140-3 Certification for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Join us for an in-depth exploration of Canonical’s latest milestone for security: FIPS 140-3 certification for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. These certificates, granted by NIST's Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP), provide essential compliance and security for organizations operating within the US Federal and Defense sectors or providing online services to the US Government. In this webinar, we’ll guide you through what this certification means, how it enhances your Ubuntu Pro experience, and what’s next on the horizon. Discover how FIPS 140-3 ensures that Ubuntu users remain ahead of evolving security standards, especially as FIPS 140-2 is phased out. We’ll also delve into the certification details, including the cryptographic modules and supported hardware platforms, as well as the importance of Ubuntu Pro’s "fips-updates" modules to maintain robust security. Whether you’re managing enterprise systems or personal projects, this session will equip you with actionable insights. We’ll also share details of the customized kernels for cloud environments, as well as provide updates on Canonical’s work to extend FIPS 140-3 certification to Ubuntu 24.04, and recommendations for users on older Ubuntu releases. Don’t miss this chance to stay informed and prepared for the next steps in securing your systems. Key takeaways from this webinar: - Understand the significance of FIPS 140-3 certification and its impact on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. - Demo: Learn how to enable FIPS 140-3 using the Ubuntu Pro client and maximize security with "fips-updates”. - Explore certification details, including cryptographic modules, hardware platforms, and cloud-specific kernels. - Get guidance on managing FIPS compliance across Ubuntu releases and preparing for future certifications.
