However, there still exists a responsibility for the cryptographic module vendor to implement best practices for software engineering as part of cryptographic module development. FIPS 140-2 Appendix B “Recommended Software Development Practices” provides guidelines to vendors for designing and developing cryptographic modules in a secure manner. *Breaking down the requirements of FIPS 140-2* We help you cut through complex language in FIPS 140-2 Appendix B with breakdowns and commentary at every critical junction as it pertains to software development. ![2020-08 Software Development Front Cover 3D](https://go.aegisolve.com/hs-fs/hubfs/2020-08%20Software%20Development%20Front%20Cover%203D.png?width=500&name=2020-08%20Software%20Development%20Front%20Cover%203D.png) ## What you’ll find inside: - Best practices for software development to FIPS 140-2 requirements. - How to design and develop cryptographic modules in a secure manner. - FIPS 140-2 implications for modular design, procedure interfaces, internal construction, in-line documentation, and assembly language. - How to achieve effective developer communication via source code comments. - Importance of the "DRY" objective and how to implement "DRY". - Secure memory and secure thread management. - How to find accredited FIPS laboratories. - Common questions and answers.   # Get the eBook ### *Free PDF Download Sent via Email* [![Share on facebook](https://7528309.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528309/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/facebook-color.png?width=24&name=facebook-color.png) ](https://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.aegisolve.com%2F5-expert-tips-multi-chip-module-ruggedization%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dfacebook) [![Share on linkedin](https://7528302.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528302/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/linkedin-color.png?width=24&name=linkedin-color.png) ](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.aegisolve.com%2F5-expert-tips-multi-chip-module-ruggedization%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dlinkedin) [![Share on twitter](https://7528304.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528304/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/twitter-color.png?width=24&name=twitter-color.png) ](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.aegisolve.com%2F5-expert-tips-multi-chip-module-ruggedization%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.aegisolve.com%2F5-expert-tips-multi-chip-module-ruggedization%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&source=tweetbutton&text=) [![Share on email](https://7528311.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528311/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/email-color.png?width=24&name=email-color.png) ](mailto:?subject=Check+out+https%3A%2F%2Fgo.aegisolve.com%2F5-expert-tips-multi-chip-module-ruggedization%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail&body=Check+out+https%3A%2F%2Fgo.aegisolve.com%2F5-expert-tips-multi-chip-module-ruggedization%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail) ![AEGISOLVE cybersecurity services](https://go.aegisolve.com/hubfs/Aegisolve_July2019%20Theme/Images/logo.png) 10133 Sherrill Blvd. Suite 110 Knoxville, TN 37932 t +1.650.386.1436 f +1.650.386.1495 e [team@aegisolve.com ‍](mailto:team@aegisolve.com) Knoxville, TN ©2023
