FIPS 140-2 encryption for Acrobat 9 Pro on Mac?

I wonder if anyone can help? I need to send documents using the FIPS 140-2 standard. Is this possible on Mac I read somewhere that it isn't!! I don't want to buy another piece of software (i.e. PGP). Any suggestions? Needs to be fairly step by step help.
Many thanks.

FIPS for Acrobat is indeed a Windows only feature.
see page 112 of this pdf: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3993&promoid=DTEHS
Can only suggest to setup a vm image of windows and download a trial of either Acrobat Pro 9 or APEX for inwdows and do it there.

  • Lync FIPS 140-2 encryption for Data in Transit Certificate?

    I work for an organization that has deployed Lync 2013 throughout the enterprise. 
    We have no need for “Data at Rest” encryption on the servers or clients at this time, but we do have a customer requirement for FIPS 140-2 encryption for “Data in Transit”?  Does Lync provide data in transit encryption utilizing one of the National
    Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) approved modules by default? If so, have all the traffic types been “Certified” compliant (i.e. Server-to-Server, Client-to-Server, IM, Audio, Video, Desktop Sharing, web conferencing, etc…)? 
    I’ve read all the technet articles and looked at the following links, but it is not clear to me. 
    I cannot find the certification number and certificate for the FIPS 140-2 validation for Lync's encryption module on either the Microsoft or NIST websites.

    Lync Server 2013 and Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 1 (SP1) operate with support for Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 algorithms if the Windows Server 2008 R2 operating systems
    are configured to use the FIPS 140-2 algorithms for system cryptography. To implement
    FIPS support, you must configure each server running Lync Server 2013 to support it. For details about
    FIPS-compliant algorithms and how to implement
    FIPS support, see Microsoft Knowledge Base article 811833, "System cryptography: Use
    FIPS compliant algorithms for encryption, hashing, and signing security setting in Windows XP and in later versions of Windows at

  • NSS FIPS 140-2 encryption for Glassfish App Server on Windows

    We would like to configure Java such that our web service communications will be encrypted in a manner that is FIPS 140-2 compliant.
    I see here that Sun has achieved success in compliance testing in conjunction with the NSS libraries from Mozilla:
    http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/1401val2007.htm#814
    I found Andrea's excellent blog which took me through steps in setting up the ..\jre\lib\security\java.security file and in setting up the nss.cfg file:
    http://blogs.sun.com/andreas/entry/elliptic_curve_cryptography_in_java
    However, when I go to the download of Mozilla \ NSS the latest releases only provide the C code tar bundles. The latest release that provided the binaries for Windows was 3.11 and that was for Windows NT.
    ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/nss/releases/NSS_3_11_RTM/
    I was therefore hoping that someone might have a step-by-step such that I could create these binaries for Windows XP and Windows Vista. Or even better someone might know of a site where I could download them.
    Other information: Our installation of Glassfish also has Metro installed.
    Thanks for any help or advice.

    Again you are a winner!
    I found certutil and modutil under C:\Mozilla\nss-3.12.4-with-nspr-4.8\mozilla\dist\WINNT5.1_DBG.OBJ\bin and the -N -d . was exactly what I needed.
    I found this blog: http://blogs.sun.com/arnabold/entry/jks_nss_and_glassfish It is a little dated but I need to somehow get Glassfish start-up to recognize my keystore as FIPS.
    The error that I am seeing when I attempt to start GlassfishV2.1 from Netbeans is:

  • Why can't I download trial for Acrobat Pro on my Mac?

    Why can't I download trial for Acrobat Pro on my Mac?  I get an error message.  I click the download:  "Install Adobe Download Assistant", then click on it, see Adobe AIR application instaler, then get "Sorry, and error has occurred.  This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance."   If I knew who the application author was, I'd contact him!  Thanks, Pete

    Hey PetaPete,
    There are some known issues when downloading Adobe Download Assistant which you can find at:
    Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant
    So, you might alternatively need to try downloading Acrobat from the link given below:
    http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-acrobat-xi-pro-standard-reader-direct-download-links.html
    Note:
    1) You need to stay on the Adobe trial page for the respective product that you're downloading. You should be signed in.
    2) Copy/ Paste trial link for the files that you're downloading from Prodesigntools on to the address bar of Adobe trial page and hit enter.

  • Where can I find updates for Acrobat Pro 8?

    Does anyone know where I can find the update files for Acrobat Pro 8.0? My scanning keeps crashing the program. I know its an old version, but its the only one I've got!
    Thanks!

    ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/. Be sure to install the updates in order. Since the HTML descriptions are gone, it is impossible to tell which ones you can skip. Reboot after the last update.

  • Unable to install updates for Acrobat Pro 9.0 and MS Office 2008

    This is a followup post to a nagging problem last fall that prevented successful installation of product version updates for Acrobat Pro 9.0 and Microsoft Office 2008 running under OS X v10.6.5. Days of fruitless, circular pursuit of solutions from both Adobe and Microsoft tech support provided no recognition of the problem…let alone an answer.
    Fortunately, a few helpful techs at a nearby Apple Store yielded results. They were initially as perplexed as their counterparts but it gratified to this customer when each recognized the problem was real and was sufficiently motivated to track down a solution.
    By process of elimination it was suggested: i) reinstall the original Snow Leopard 10.6.0 upgrade disk; ii) download the v10.6.5 combo update to bring the OS current; and iii) download and install the Acrobat and Office updates. It worked—perfectly—the first time.
    The consensus seems to be that a combination of many successive installations of OS and product version updates eventually produced conflicting instructions resulting in stalemate.
    Remarkably, it hasn't been necessary (or appealing) to perform a clean install since some point prior to the introduction of OS X. Nor has it since. A 'rollback' to the original Snow Leopard version with one subsequent update to the current OS version appears to have cleared out a nest of remnant conflicting instructions. Kudos to Apple's tech support and Occam's Razor.

    Hello,
    You can download the Acrobat 9 updates manually by following link:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
    However, PDF Maker plugin would not be enable in Outlook, as Acrobat 9 is not support with Office 2013.
    Please refer to following compatibility chart:
    Compatible web browsers and PDFMaker applications
    You need to have Acrobat 11 to get PDF maker plugin in Office 2013.

  • Is there a Safari extension (or plug-in) for Acrobat Pro?

    Is there a Safari extension (or plug-in) for Acrobat Pro? I use to have one, then when I updated to the new Yosemite operating system, it disappeared.

    For Acrobat Pro? I don't really understand. You don't typically *edit* PDFs in a browser.
    Note that Acrobat Reader is totally unnecessary on OS X. I'd recommend avoiding it. If you are creating PDFs, or doing advanced features that make it worth spending hundreds of dollars, then Acrobat Pro may make sense, but otherwise, just use Preview.

  • How can we get incremental updates for Acrobat Pro 9

    We have VLK for Acrobat Pro 9 and the only version that doesn't crash Office 2007 Professional Publisher is 9.4.6.  I can't get just that update to install it jumps from 9.2 to 9.5.  9.5 falls into a loop for prompting for saving information.
    Thanks!

    You get the updates by going to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows for Windows. There is a similar page for a MAC.

  • I just purchased a month to month subscription for Acrobat Pro and I am getting an error when I try to download the software.

    I just purchased a month to month subscription for Acrobat Pro and I am getting an error when I try to download the software. after about 50% of the way, it just crashes.
    Thank you,
    JTF

    I am having the same problem - the install crashes around 40%. 
    I am using MAC OS 10.10.2 and purchased Acrobat Pro monthly subscription.  The error message is: 
    'Acrobat installer has encountered an unexpected failure.  Please try again.  If it continues to fail, contact Adobe support.'
    I have tried several times but keep getting the same error message.  Any ideas?
    Thanks,

  • I've a Creative Cloud account, why do I have to pay for Online Services subscription for Acrobat Pro XI ?

    I have a Creative Cloud account, so I have the desktop applications... why do I need to pay more to have Acrobat Pro access for my iOS devices (cloud access for Acrobat Pro) ?

    Hi MacEarl,
    You might need to know that subscriptions for Creative Cloud and Adobe online services are different.
    What exactly is the trouble that is causing you and what do you wish?
    Please let us know.

  • Replacement Program for Acrobat Pro 7

    I have twice downloaded the replacement program for Acrobat Pro 7 but get an error message when I try to install it. The message asks me to verify that I have access to the directory. The only options are abort/retry/ignore, none of which allows me to proceed past a partial installation. Any suggestions?

    You still need to log in as an administrator to install the software, unless there have been changes in Acrobat that I am not aware of. At one point, it had to be the actual Administrator account, not one with admin priv. I think that went away after that one version, but you should still have admin priv.
    If you are trying to install AA7 (the one that allows separate activation process), you may still not be able to install it, particularly if you are talking about a 64-bit system. If it is 64-bits, then I have my doubts that AA7 will install at all, but you can try. If you succeed, with the installation, you will probably need to work on some workarounds to get things to operate. You may not get the Adobe PDF printer for instance. There are several things that you might be able to do for fixes in a sense on Win7, 32-bit. I have my doubts that they work on WIn7, 64-bit (I have not tried).
    If you are indeed trying to install AA XI, then you can ignore my comments. Maybe I need to try on one of my 64-bit systems at work to see what I can get away with.
