FIPS certification for Android and iPhone

Does anyone know the name of the cryptographic libraries from the iPhone and Android SDK? I do not mean the name of classes, functions, etc., but the name of the provider and / or the library itself. Are they FIPS Certified?

thanks

I found out that for Android it is Bouncy Castle and it is not FIPS certified. As far as Apple is concerned, it is their own implementation also in the FIPS certification process in accordance with the NIST website in Modules in Process.

There are currently no fips certified java cryptographic libraries. So you are stuck writing a wrapper around a FIP certified fips implementation. Openssl is one that is supported on mobile devices.

openssl supports both Android and iphone. It is worth checking out.
