Regulation
The DEA's CSOS Regulation
The DEA's Controlled Substance Ordering System (CSOS) allows for secure electronic transmission of Schedule I-V controlled substance orders without the supporting paper Form 222.
The DEA requires that auditors validate that the cryptographic modules are FIPS 140-2 certified. Auditors must also validate all aspects of the software that are addressed in the regulations.
Compliance
Authorized User Controls
Establish a secure and scalable PKI that helps ensure that only authorized users and devices have access to enterprise networks. Using Entrust HSMs to help secure the process of issuing CSOS certificates and proactively manage signing keys creates a high-assurance foundation for digital security.
Strong Key Management
Ensure that encrypted data remains unreadable by protecting encryption keys with FIPS-certified Entrust HSMs.
