As cyber threats intensify and management-plane attacks become more sophisticated, federal agencies are rethinking the technologies that provide Out-of-Band Management and secure remote access. Many commercially available OOBM devices rely on foreign manufacturing, partial cryptographic validation, or open-source security modules that fall short of federal compliance requirements.

This technical brief breaks down why CDI’s PA100 Series stands alone as the only U.S.-built, fully FIPS 140-3 validated OOBM platform engineered for FISMA High and Zero Trust environments. It outlines CDI’s Secure-by-Design architecture, its U.S.-controlled supply chain, the importance of full-system validation, and why agencies are moving away from foreign-built hardware.

For organizations responsible for national security, critical infrastructure, or regulated environments, this brief provides a clear framework for evaluating OOBM solutions through a security-first lens.
