At jtsec we have always supported and promoted the construction of a more cybersafe world and, if we can help by sharing our experience, we are more than happy to do so. Last week we collaborated in two webinars. We would like to thank both Checkpoint Technologies and Taiwan Association of Information and Communication Standards (TAICS) for having us in mind to collaborate in these presentations.
Five years ago, CCN created the Catalogue of Information and Communication Technology Security Products and Services (CPSTIC) to support the administration in the acquisition of cybersecurity products. Currently, these two initiatives are now united within the legal framework of the ENS, which regulates the National Security Scheme (ENS), the mention of the CCN’s Catalogue of Information and Communication Technology Security Products and Services (CPSTIC) was incorporated, along with the collection of requirements related to certified/qualified products and services according to their classification.
Cryptography has become, in recent years, a fundamental part of the cybersecurity of any product. Therefore, CCN has decided to create a methodology for the evaluation of cryptographic mechanisms that can be applied to all those products that are certified/qualified using standards such as Common Criteria and LINCE, as well as for those that are tested directly against the methodology itself as cryptographic evaluation.
After an exhaustive audit process by the entity Cámara Certifica, which has taken several months of effort, we are pleased to announce that jtsec Beyond IT Security has achieved the highest possible level of certification in the ENS (Spanish National Security Scheme), thus fulfilling a requirement to collaborate with the Public Administration.
In 2022 a total of 370 certifications were completed. This year is quite exciting for us, because for the first time jtsec appears in this report. In addition, we have become part of Applus Cybersecurity Labs (Applus+Lightship+jtsec) which makes us among the laboratories with the most certifications achieved this year.
