Is DES FIPS 140-2 compliant

Data Encryption Standard (DES) is not compliant with FIPS 140-2, as FIPS 140-2 is a standard for security requirements for cryptographic modules. DES itself is considered outdated and insecure due to its short key length of 56 bits, making it vulnerable to brute-force attacks. While cryptographic implementations using DES can be tested for FIPS compliance, the algorithm itself is not recommended for secure applications in modern contexts.
