Cryptographic Module Validation Program CMVP

Certificate #3875

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. This validation entry is a non-security-relevant modification to Cert. #2839
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.
