Common Criteria (CC)

What is Common Criteria (CC)?


com - mon  cri - te - ri - a 
noun


The Common Criteria are a set of global standards and criteria that are used to assess information security products or systems.

How does CC work?


If a vendor’s product falls into one of the Common Criteria categories, they’ll need to complete a security target (ST) description, which includes a description of the product’s security features, as well as an assessment of potential security risks. 

They’ll also need to complete the vendor’s self-assessment, which outlines how the product aligns with the specific Evaluation Assurance Level (EAL) and Protection Profile (PP) the vendor wants to be tested against.
