It is therefore vital that businesses can get assurances about the best products to protect their critical data and systems . The CC certificate is globally recognised among government bodies , state organisations and ministries responsible for security among its signatories , thereby providing a valuable indicator of quality and consistency .
The Kaspersky Lab product is now certified to the EAL 2 + Assurance Level , which is recognised by all 32 signatory countries across the world . Certification was conducted by an independent Spanish evaluation laboratory and approved by the certification body of Spain .
The certification report issued confirms the ability of Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows to provide reliable encryption of device data , including user and operation system data , along with antimalware and access control functionality . www . intelligentciso . com | Issue 03
