1.3.3 Enabling Support for FIPS-Compliant Data Encryption
Algorithms (Optional)
Portability Suite supports data encryption algorithms that are compliant with FIPS (Federal
Information Processing Standards, Publication 140-2).
If compliance with FIPS is required, it must be enabled on the intended Portability Suite Server host
prior to the installation of the Portability Suite Server. This is because Portability Suite runs in FIPS-
compliant mode only if it detects that a workload's operating system is running in FIPS-compliant
mode.
NOTE: FIPS-compliant mode has a performance impact and might slow down the data transfer rate
up to 30%.
To enable FIPS-compliant algorithms:
1 On your Portability Suite Server host, install the Microsoft .NET Framework security update
