Cryptographic Security Validator

Purpose & When-To-Use

Trigger conditions:

• Cryptographic implementation review before production deployment
• TLS/SSL configuration audit
• Certificate lifecycle management validation
• FIPS 140-2/3 compliance requirement
• Post-incident cryptographic security assessment

Not for:

• Cryptographic algorithm design (use research/academic resources)
• Quantum-resistant cryptography evaluation (requires specialized analysis)
• Application-level encryption implementation (use security-appsec-validator)
• Physical HSM security assessment (requires on-site evaluation)
