Operated by the National Security Agency (NSA), accredited laboratories perform security testing in accordance with the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) Common Criteria Evaluation and Validation Scheme, helping to improve the level of trust consumers have in their information systems and networks through security testing, evaluation and validation programs. An EAL6+ / NSA High Robustness-certified operating system could be the base of a multilevel secure system that protects high-value resources and classified information against significant risks. For this evaluation, Wind River has selected CygnaCom Solutions Inc., a Common Criteria Test Lab, to conduct the independent evaluation of the VXWorks MILS Platform 2.0. Wind River’s VxWorks MILS Platform 2.0 is the latest addition to the industry-leading VxWorks portfolio of products, demonstrating Wind River’s commitment to the safety and security needs of the aerospace and defense industry.
