Check Point Software Technologies Achieves Two Government Cybersecurity Certifications

SAN CARLOS, Calif., July 07, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Check Point^® Software Technologies Ltd. ( CHKP), a leading provider of cyber security solutions globally, is proud to announce that the Check Point R81.10 Quantum Cyber Security platform has been awarded Common Criteria EAL4 and FIPS 140-2 certifications.

Governments recognize Common Criteria certifications at the EAL4+ level as the standard needed for validating security products as fit-for-purpose in protecting their networks and data. Achieving assurance at EAL4+ validates that the certified product correctly implements the claimed security and provides assurance of the vendor through audit of its lifecycle activities and its delivery of customer services.

Common Criteria certificates are mutually recognized by the 31 member Nations of the Common Criteria Recognition Agreement (CCRA) up to EAL2, and by European Nations up to EAL4 through the SOGIS agreement. The US and Canada mandate that cryptographic products are compliant with FIPS 140-2. Achieving this certification enables deployment of R81.10 within Government and closely related networks.

“Every organization deserves the best security,” said Eyal Manor, VP Product Management at Check Point Software Technologies. “These new certifications not only validate our efforts, but also serves as a powerful testament to our pursuit of providing the most comprehensive, consolidated, and collaborative security globally.”

These certifications underscore Check Point’s ability to protect global entities and comply with the latest approved standards for protecting and securing IT infrastructure and information. The certification of Check Point R81.10, one of the industry's most advanced Threat Prevention and security management software for network security, delivers uncompromising simplicity and consolidation.
