Cryptographic Module Validation Program CMVP

Certificate #2839

Details

Module Name
VMware OpenSSL FIPS Object Module
Standard
FIPS 140-2
Status
Historical
 Historical Reason
Moved to historical list due to sunsetting
Overall Level
1
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. No assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy
Security Level Exceptions
  • Roles, Services, and Authentication: Level 2
  • Physical Security: N/A
  • Design Assurance: Level 3
  • Mitigation of Other Attacks: N/A
Module Type
Software
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Description
The VMware OpenSSL FIPS Object Module provides cryptographic functions to various VMware applications.
