!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] ([Common Criteria] or [CC]) is an international standard ([ISO]/[IEC] [15408|ISO 15408]) for computer security certification.
[Common Criteria] is a [framework] in which computer system users can specify their [Security Functional Requirements] ([SFR]) and [Security Assurance Requirement] ([SAR]) through the use of [Protection Profile]s ([PP]s) within a [Security Target] ([ST]), vendors can then implement and/or make claims about the security attributes of their products, and testing laboratories can evaluate the products to determine if they actually meet the claims.
In other words, [Common Criteria] provides assurance that the process of [specification], [implementation] and [evaluation] of a computer security product has been conducted in a rigorous and standard and repeatable manner at a level that is commensurate with the target environment for use.
[Common Criteria] for Information Technology Security Evaluation (CC) specifies an [Evaluation Assurance Level] ([EAL]) that indicates how thoroughly security was reviewed and tested. Levels range from EAL1 (functionally tested) to EAL7 (formally verified design and tested). [{$pagename}] testing allows customers in any of the approving countries to purchase products with confidence in their security to the assigned level.
