Module Name
VMware OpenSSL FIPS Object Module
Validation Dates
03/29/2021
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
Embodiment
Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Description
The VMware OpenSSL FIPS Object Module provides cryptographic functions to various VMware applications.
