Code Integrity (ci.dll)
Microsoft Corporation - FIPS 140 #890
This is a dynamically linked library that runs as ntoskrnl.exe. It verifies the integrity of executable files, including kernel mode drivers, critical system components and user mode crypto modules, before these files are loaded from disk into memory by the memory manager.

Algorithm families of the CAVP certificates listed for this module, plus post-quantum algorithms named in its documents.
CAVP algorithm certificates (2)
Each approved algorithm in a FIPS 140-3 module needs its own NIST CAVP certificate. Older numeric certificates link to their NIST page; ACVP certificates (A1234) can be looked up in the CAVP validation search.
Tested environments
- Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate Edition (x64 version) (single-user mode)
- Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate Edition (x86 Version)
Operational environments the module was tested on, as listed by NIST CMVP.
