These weeks have been very special, and there are projects that we are particularly excited to assume. The DIBA project (Digitalization of interlocks through low latency communications: Application to IFMIF-DONES) has been selected by the Next Generation EU funds to be carried out in the coming months, this first phase is scheduled to end in August 2022.
On several occasions we have commented in our blog on the process to be followed to include products or services in the CPSTIC catalogue. All products and services included in the CPSTIC catalogue are qualified, but not all of them are certified. Do you want to know the difference?
For some years now, cybersecurity in the industrial field has been taking on a particularly significant relevance. Industrial sectors have taken note of the seriousness of suffering cyber-attacks that could potentially stop or slow down their production, or expose sensitive information. This March, after an exhaustive audit by IECEE, we obtained accreditation to carry out assessments under the IECEE CB scheme, more specifically for the IEC 62443 4-1 and IEC 62443 4-2 standards, dedicated to assessing the cybersecurity of industrial components.
Collaborating with prestigious media in the cybersecurity sector is always a great satisfaction for us. That is why, when we were contacted by Revista SIC to write an article about CCCAB, the innovative tool we are developing for the Common Criteria validation process, we got down to work. In the last edition of Revista SIC you can find the article that we publish now in our blog.
As every year, we offer the CCStatistics for the previous year in its full version, once all data has been compiled and analysed. 2021 was the year with the highest number of Common Criteria certifications in history, with 411 certifications, surpassing the 400 milestone for the first time.
This year is quite exciting for us, because for the first time, our laboratory has evaluated the first product under the Common Criteria standard, which allows us to become an accredited laboratory for Common Criteria evaluations.
