All on-card cryptographic modules that host the PIV Card application and cryptographic modules of card issuance and maintenance systems SHALL be validated to [FIPS 140] with an overall Security Level 2 (or higher). The facilities for [FIPS 140] testing are the Cryptographic and Security Testing Laboratories accredited by the NVLAP program of NIST. Vendors who want to supply cryptographic modules can select an accredited laboratory. The tests that these laboratories conduct for all vendor submissions are validated, and a validation certificate for each vendor module is issued by the Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP), a joint program run by NIST and the Communications Security Establishment (CSE) of the Government of Canada. The details of the CMVP and NVLAP programs and the list of testing laboratories can be found at the CMVP website, https://csrc.nist.gov/projects/cryptographic-module - validation-program.
