FIPS 140-2 validation is mandated for encryption modules used by the
US federal government when dealing with sensitive-confidential (but
not classified) information. I believe it's also mandated for the
Canada federal government, as well.
This mandate means that even if it takes 10 minutes to ini

Hi,
I'm using the FIPS approved OpenSSL. In the initialization it runs
several self tests which take quite a long time. I use only several
algorithms from the OpenSSL, is there a way to remove the self tests
of the algorithms that I don't use (like DSA) without losing the FIPS
