Set-EVClassificationVICFIPSMode

Note:

This cmdlet is only for use in Enterprise Vault 14.1 and later that uses the Veritas Information Classifier 2.4.0 or later.

Enterprise Vault 14.1 uses Veritas Information Classifier 2.4.0, which is Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 standards compliant and meets the security requirements for cryptographic modules. By default, Veritas Information Classifier operates in the Relaxed mode (non-Approved mode).

If Enterprise Vault is used in a FIPS 140-2-compliant environment, it is recommended for administrators to enable the Strict mode (Approved mode) to use FIPS-compliant Veritas Information Classifier.

Set-EVClassificationVICFIPSMode can be used to change the FIPS mode of Veritas Information Classifier used within Enterprise Vault.

When enabled, Veritas Information Classifier runs in FIPS Approved mode. It also recycles Veritas Information Classifier application pool on the computer for the changes to take effect.

Note:

Run the cmdlet on an Enterprise Vault server as an administrator using a 64-Bit Windows PowerShell prompt.

Syntax

Set-EVClassificationVICFIPSMode [-FipsEnabled] <Boolean> [<CommonParameters>]

Parameters

Table: Set-EVClassificationVICFIPSMode parameters

Parameter

Description

-FipsEnabled <Boolean>

(Required)

Specifies the FIPS mode of Veritas Information Classifier used within Enterprise Vault. By default, the value is set to False, resulting in the use of the FIPS Relaxed mode. If the value is set to True, then the FIPS Strict (Approved) mode will be used.

Examples

  • Set-EVClassificationVICFIPSMode -FipsEnabled:$true

    Enables the FIPS Approved mode of Veritas Information Classifier used within Enterprise Vault.

  • Set-EVClassificationVICFIPSMode -FipsEnabled:$false

    Disables the FIPS Approved mode of Veritas Information Classifier used within Enterprise Vault.

Output

None.
