AWS LC with FIPS for React Native

Installation

npm install @op-engineering/op-aws-lc
npx pod-install

Or if using Expo

npm install @op-engineering/op-aws-lc
npx expo prebuild

Motivation

FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards) is a set of standards and guidelines for cryptographic modules, established by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). FIPS 140-2/3 certification ensures that cryptographic modules meet rigorous security requirements for use in government and regulated industries.

Key points about FIPS:

• Required for US federal government systems
• Industry standard for healthcare and financial sectors
• Validates implementation of cryptographic algorithms
• Ensures proper key management and module security
• AWS-LC has obtained FIPS 140-2 Level 1 validation

This library binds the Rust version of AWS-LC with FIPS turned on.

Usage

Hmac

import { generateHmacKey, HmacAlgorithm } from '@op-engineering/op-aws-lc';

const key = generateHmacKey(HmacAlgorithm.SHA256);
// Signature is an ArrayBuffer that contains the raw bytes of the tag
const signature = key.sign('hello');
if (key.verify('hello', signature) == false) {
  console.error('Signature verification failed!');
}
