Are there any FIPS certified apps that use openssl?
If there are any, the short answer is that ye

Ummm
have you even looked at the FIPS testing criteria? Have you looked at
the FIPS 140-2 standard? Just because you have a well-known FIPS
company guiding you through the process doesn't mean you're goi

When calling RAND_pseudo_bytes
is it correct that the PRNG will not give the same result even though I have
the same seed (I thought if I had the same seed I could get the same results

Thank you!
The below produces two different
