CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that CA eHealth® Performance Manager r6.1.2 has met the rigorous requirements of Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level 2 from the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP). NIAP grants Common Criteria certification to products that meet benchmarks for security, based on product functionality, development environment, documentation and product testing measures.

“Being certified by Common Criteria demonstrates that CA Technologies is committed to the highest standards and compliance requirements for our products,” said Cliff Meltzer, corporate senior vice president and general manager, Service Assurance, CA Technologies. “Customers can rest assured that CA eHealth, as well as a growing list of other products from CA Technologies, has successfully met a rigorous set of security standards developed and evaluated by an independent third party.”

CA eHealth® Performance Manager is the device performance management module of the CA Service Assurance portfolio. The product helps ensure the quality of IT service across infrastructures by enabling organizations to manage a diverse collection of devices from numerous vendors, isolate the source of performance degradation, minimize recurring expenses, and provide detailed, executive-level historical reporting.

The CA eHealth evaluation was performed by Booz Allen Hamilton’s Common Criteria Testing Laboratory (CCTL). The Booz Allen Hamilton lab is one of only nine U.S.-based CCTLs approved by NIAP and meets the Common Criteria Evaluation and Validation Scheme. The Booz Allen CCTL conducts IT security evaluations for conformance to the Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation, International Standard ISO/IEC 15408:1999.

CA Spectrum® Infrastructure Manager also recently achieved Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level 2 certification in Canada.

About Common Criteria

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the National Security Agency (NSA) established the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) to evaluate IT product conformance to the Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation, an international standard. The program, officially known as the NIAP Common Criteria Evaluation and Validation Scheme (CCEVS) is a partnership between the public and private sectors to help organizations select commercial off-the-shelf information technology (IT) products that meet their security requirements and to help manufacturers of those products gain acceptance in the global marketplace. Twenty-six countries now recognize the Common Criteria as third-party evaluation criteria for IT security procedures.
