About Common Criteria and NIAP
Government agencies, their third-party suppliers and small to medium size enterprises often turn to commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) IT solutions due to their flexibility, availability and affordability compared to custom solutions. NIAP is responsible for ensuring these IT products meet the manufacturer's claims for security features and capabilities and conform to the international Common Criteria Evaluation and Validation Scheme (CCEVS). In order to ensure strict compliance with the specified technology protection profiles, NIAP uses neutral, third-party product test laboratories. Attila has been working with Acumen Security, a NIAP-approved laboratory, and its GoSilent Client and GoSilent Virtual Server are now included in the U.S. NIAP In-Evaluation Product List. A complete list of all NIAP-certified products, products in evaluation and corresponding conformance claims can be found at https://www.niap-ccevs.org/Product/PINE.cfm.
