2012-02-16行业领先的企业级Java应用平台获得Common Criteria EAL 4+证书
北卡罗莱纳州，罗利市 - 世界领先的开源解决方案供应商-红帽公司（纽约证券交易所代码：RHT）今天宣布其Jboss企业级应用平台5.1.0以及5.1.1版本在通用评估准则评估和认证体系（CCS：Common Criteria Evaluation and Certification Scheme）下获得Common Criteria评估保障级别4级（EAL 4+）证书。Common Criteria是一套国际上普遍认可的准则，针对于信息产品和信息系统的安全性进行评估和认证。在该类解决方案中，EAL 4+是在通用评估准则互认协定（CCRA：Common Criteria Recognition Agreement）下的所有签约国所公认的最高保障级别。该证书也标志着Jboss企业级中间件系列产品在通用准则认证中所获得的最高级别。
“对于政府、金融服务以及医疗这些安全意识强的行业在考虑新技术解决方案时，安全性依然是最重要的考虑因素之一。通用评估证书的获得，表明了我们的解决方案上达到特定的且国际认可的安全性能方面的基准，这将增强客户的信心。”Red Hat公共运营部门的总经理兼副总裁Paul Smith先生解释道：“我们承诺将Common Criteria证书从EAL 2升级到EAL 4+并且达到当前最高的认证级别，该证书的获得证明了我们在满足安全意识强的政府组织和企业的要求方面所做出的持续不断的努力。”
为了实现该认证，Red Hat与atsec信息安全进行了合作，该实验室经过了美国和德国政府授权认可。该实验室基于Common Criteria标准（ISO/IEC 15408）针对产品的安全、性能和可靠性执行了EAL 4+的测试和验证，其测试和结果证书均验证了Jboss企业级应用平台在构建、部署以及托管企业级Java应用和服务上是最可靠的平台。
“我们非常荣幸Red Hat选择atsec实验室执行通用准则评估，该项目延续了atsec与Red Hat之间成功的商业关系“，atsec美国通用准则实验室经理KEN Hake说道：“Red Hat此次通用项目的完成将为在商业关键环境中运行Jboss企业级中间件的客户带来更多的保障。”
该认证的获得巩固了Red Hat在安全解决方案领域内领导者的地位，该解决方案为安全敏感的环境和政府使用而设计。迄今为止，Red Hat已经完成了16项不同的Common Criteria认证，包括13项针对Red Hat 企业级 Linux（面向四款不同的硬件平台）的认证。Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5在受控访问保护轮廓（CAPP：Controlled Access Protection Profile）、标签安全保护轮廓（LSPP：Label Security Protection Profile）以及基于角色和访问控制保护轮廓（RBACPP：Role-Based Access Control Protection Profile）下完成了Common Criteria EAL 4+认证，在主流操作系统中提供了领先的安全和保障水平。
该承诺仍然在继续，Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 和 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6（包括KVM Hypervisor）当前正致力于通用准则EAL 4+认证证书的评估过程中。
