Common Criteria Certification
Crunchy Data was proud to announce that its trusted open source PostgreSQL distribution, Crunchy Certified PostgreSQL, achieved certification through the Common Criteria Certification Scheme at Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level (EAL) 2+, an international standard (ISO/IEC 15408) for computer security certification. Common Criteria provides assurance that the specification, implementation and evaluation of a computer security product has been conducted in a rigorous, standard, and repeatable manner at a level appropriate for its target environment. Common Criteria certification provides an independent validation of the security functionality of Crunchy Certified PostgreSQL. For Crunchy Data customers, Common Criteria at the EAL 2+ level certification provides confidence that Crunchy Data's customer support and supply chain methodologies have been independently validated by a third party lab as being consistent with industry best practices.
