Common Criteria Certification - Secure Firewall (Sidewinder) appliance
Whether you are running a government defense network, a financial network, healthcare
network in Europe, Asia, the United States or wherever, there is a clear choice when it
comes to identifying the best certified firewall for your organization. Secure Firewall (Sidewinder)
have achieved the coveted Common Criteria EAL4+ certification, which is the highest
assurance level recognized by the International community.
Common Criteria is the world's standard for evaluating security products. Widely respected
for its extensive and comprehensive evaluation by an independent 3rd party, EAL4+ Common Criteria accreditation
certifies that the firewall's design, software development methodology, and multi-layered
security mechanisms meet or exceed the highest of all assurance levels defined by the
international standard. The receipt of this Common Criteria award is just one more example of how
Secure Computing's Secure Firewall (Sidewinder) security appliances define excellence in meeting the
security needs of the world's most important and sensitive networks.
Secure Firewall (Sidewinder) is the only Common Criteria certified product that both meets an application
firewall protection profile at the medium robustness level and includes the operating system at the EAL4 level.
Additionally Secure Firewall (Sidewinder) and its former CyberGuard TSP product
differentiate themselves from competitors by having included the operating system for the
EAL4 Common Criteria certification. No other products have completed a certification that is as
comprehensive as Secure Computing's Secure Firewall (Sidewinder) and CyberGuard TSP.
