+# FIPS 140-2 Compliance
+
+The Python SDK allows using FIPS 140-2 validated SSL libraries (OpenSSL 3.0).
+To enable FIPS mode for `cryptography` library, it is required to bind a FIPS-compliant version
+of the OpenSSL to the library during the installation process. To use OpenSSL 3.0 for the entire
+network communication, it is required to build a custom version of Python with the OpenSSL module replaced.
