ACE Encryption Engine

Certificate #859

Webpage information

Status historical
Historical reason RNG SP800-131A Revision 1 Transition
Validation dates 06.11.2007
Standard FIPS 140-2
Security level 1
Type Software
Embodiment Multi-Chip Stand Alone
Caveat When operated in FIPS mode
Description The ACE Encryption Engine allows virtual machines to be encapsulated into files which can be saved, copied, and provisioned. VMware Software Cryptographic Implementation is the kernel implementation that enables the VMware ACE application to perform its cryptographic functions such as hashing, encryption, digital signing, etc.
Tested configurations
  • Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate (single-user mode)
  • Microsoft Windows XP Professional with SP2
Vendor VMware, Inc.
