Is SmartAssembly FIPS compliant?

in SmartAssembly
Hello, we are looking into making our toolchain FIPS compliant, and are currently using SmartAssembly to build our releases.

I am seeing errors when then running these assemblies built using SmartAssembly that I am not seeing with local builds (with the FIPS setting enabled on my machine)

I am looking for confirmation whether or not SmartAssembly is FIPS compliant.

Thank you!

    Hello tyoungman,

    It is.. however we are presently tracking a bug where under certain circumstances one of the encryption algorithms incorrectly switches to a deprecated cipher, which is only meant to happen on assemblies targetting very old .Net versions.
    Kind regards

    Thanks @Peter_Laws,

    Our assemblies currently utilize .NET frameworks 4-4.8, I assume this would fall under "very old". 
    Might be a good time for us to upgrade!

    I'll do some investigating with this in mind. Thanks again for your response.
