Concerned about preparing for

FIPS 140-2 & Common Criteria?

What you need to know:

Whether you hire a consultant, or choose to tackle this mission in-house, our #1 piece of advice is to PLAN AHEAD! 

Planning and conducting a thorough analysis of the effort before beginning is critical to the success of the project.  Planning ahead allows you to limit the number of obstacles that you may run into along the way and gives everyone a chance to get up to speed on the project by establishing realistic goals and expectations for your team.

The following list shows just a few of the topics that must be addressed before starting FIPS 140-2 or Common Criteria.
 

- Which products and specific versions are to be evaluated?

- Are there sufficient funds available?

- Who will be the “go-to person” in your company for your validation needs?

- What level do you plan to pursue for your validation?

- Do you have the internal resources available to keep this project on track?

- Will your product need design changes to meet the requirements?

- Is your current product documentation sufficient for the validation process?

- What kind of ROI do you expect to see?

- What is your competition doing?

- What are you customers asking for?
