ACE Encryption Engine

Certificate details

Certificate ID #859
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

Automated analysis

Automated inference - use with caution

All attributes shown in this section (e.g., links between certificates, products, vendors, and known CVEs) are generated by automated heuristics and have not been reviewed by humans. These methods can produce false positives or false negatives and should not be treated as definitive without independent verification. This applies equally to the Cross-references section below. If you want to know more about how this data is computed and how reliable it is, see our documentation on automated analysis. If you believe any information here is inaccurate or harmful, please submit feedback.

No automatically derived data are available in this section.
