Solution or Workaround
If you receive the above error message, this indicates that the web server your site is hosted on has been configured to meet the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS). FIPS is a US government computer security standard regarding cryptographic modules.
If you run a commercial website, online store, or use our application PDshop, your server should be set to the PCI Standard (Payment Card Industry standard), not FIPS. PCI is the standard for merchants and is required by most merchant's processing banks. PDshop is designed for a PCI compliant server environment. FIPS is only appropriate if your website app is on a US government server.
