Dan,

On Redhat Linux, to enable FIPS, FIPS package is available
         https://access.redhat.com/discussions/3293631     ==> Explains how to 
validate if FIPS is enabled on Redhat Linux

I am looking for something like that, whereby I can install a package and 
enable FIPS on Debian.

Regards
Tapas Das

What precisely do you mean?

For me, FIPS generally means Federal Information Processing Standards, and 
refers to a series of documents and protocols that the US government likes.

For example, FIPS-140 describes AES, an encryption system which is used by lots 
of things, including SSH and TLS.
