Apple has engaged Science Applications International Corporation
(SAIC) to conduct a Common Criteria evaluation of Mac OS X and Mac OS
X Server.
The Common Criteria is an internationally accepted standard that
permits comparability between the results of independent security
evaluations by providing a common set of requirements for the security
functions of IT products and for assurance measures applied to them
during a security evaluation.
The evaluation will be conducted by SAIC's Common Criteria Testing
Laboratory (CCTL), participating in the National Information Assurance
Partnership (NIAP) Common Criteria Evaluation and Validation Scheme
(CCEVS). The Lab will conduct the evaluation in accordance with the
Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation (ISO
15408) Evaluation Assurance Level 3 requirements. Mac OS X and Mac OS
X Server will be evaluated against the functional requirements of the
Controlled Access Protection Profile.
We are excited to be working with SAIC to validate the security of Mac
OS X so our customers will have an internationally accepted standard
to help guide purchases and product development.
