Module Name
VMware Java JCE (Java Cryptographic Extension) Module
Historical Reason
Moved to historical list due to sunsetting
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy. No assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys
Security Level Exceptions
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Description
The VMware Java JCE (Java Cryptographic Extension) Module is a software cryptographic module based on the Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. FIPS Java API (BC-FJA) Module (SW Version 1.0.0). The module is a software library that provides cryptographic functions to various VMware applications via a well-defined Java-language application program interface (API).
