Security at a new level: infodas IT security product receives BSI certification according to Common Criteria

"With this high-level certification for our SDoT Software Data Diode, we are confirming our chosen path. With this certificate, our approach to stronger, process-oriented development using security-by-design principles has been recognized. We also clearly demonstrate the high security standards that our software-based cybersecurity solution meets. The German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) was very cooperative, and we would like to thank them for their support throughout the collaboration. We are very proud to have completed another important certification process with the SDoT Software Data Diode," comments Carsten Schulz, Managing Director at infodas.

The SDoT Software Data Diode stands for secure and high-performance uni-directional data transfer via numerous protocols between two networks with different classifications. The areas of application include the defense industry, intelligence services, the public sector, and critical infrastructures. The SDoT Software Data Diode is currently the only software-based data diode with high-level approvals and certifications. Among others, the cross-domain solution is approved for the classification levels DEU SECRET, EU SECRET and NATO SECRET. It also has the relevant Bureau Veritas seal for shipping applications, in accordance with IACS guidelines UR E26 and UR E27.

"With the Common Criteria certification according to EAL5+, we have achieved the highest evaluation level that can currently be realistically awarded for complex software-based products. Accordingly, the SDoT Software Data Diode meets the strictest requirements for modern security-critical applications. This was only possible thanks to outstanding teamwork and massive efforts on infodas‘ part, but it was absolutely worth it," explains Hanns Benigno Groeschke, Lead Product Certification at infodas.
