Fix Recommendation

If encryption intermediary services are provided, configure the ALG to use NIST FIPS-validated cryptography to implement encryption services.

Check Contents

If the ALG does not provide encryption intermediary services (e.g., HTTPS, TLS, or DNSSEC), this is not applicable.

Verify the ALG uses NIST FIPS-validated cryptography to implement encryption services.

If the ALG does not use NIST FIPS-validated cryptography to implement encryption services, this is a finding.
