MORE INFORMATION
The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Publication 140-2 specifies the security requirements of cryptographic modules used to protect sensitive information. Mail Express v4.0 and later allows you the option of using only protocols and
algorithms for use by FIPS 140-2, which uses a higher level of ciphers
and will rule out the weak ones, like Diffie-Hellman.
