BARCELONA, Spain, September 30, 2010 - Safelayer Secure Communications (www.safelayer.com) -leader in the
security and trust market for information and communication technologies-
announces the obtaining of the Common Criteria (CC) EAL4+ certification for
the latest version of its TrustedX product. EAL4+ is considered the benchmark
for the security certification of ICT systems.
Version 3.0 of the TrustedX solution incorporates, under unified
management, the following service components, all of which fall within the
scope of CC EAL4+ certification: electronic signature generation and
verification, data encryption and decryption, key management, authentication,
authorization and access control, and auditing. The Spanish Certification
Body (CNI-CCN) has certified that all these components are EAL4+ secure and
comply with the US government's functional requirements for applications with
PKI technology (U.S. Government Basic Robustness PKE PP) and additional
functional requirements derived from the EU Directive on Electronic
Signatures (Directive 1999/93/EC).
Authentication, electronic signature and data encryption mechanisms are a
business priority for safeguarding against fraud, saving costs and complying
with the regulations in different countries. According to Francisco Jordan,
CEO and cofounder of Safelayer, "Safelayer technology is used in critical
business processes. Security certifications are part of our quality strategy
for offering products with the maximum assurances for reliability and
robustness."
Through CC certification, the Certification Body certifies that the
technology is secure, which means Safelayer's clients can have the utmost
confidence in the company's products. CC EAL4+ certification guarantees an
independent and systematical review of the completeness of the product-of
both the specifications and the tests carried out-and the security in the
product development procedures. EAL4+ certification is the benchmark adopted
by the ICT sector to provide the necessary and sufficient guarantees for
quality and reliability. TrustedX is the most complete tool in its category
and the first to obtain this certification for all its functionality.
