Citrix is proud to announce that Citrix ADC version 12.1 has achieved Common Criteria certification. The evaluated configuration consists of the physical platforms MPX 8900 FIPS and MPX 15000-50G FIPS. We’re also thrilled to have the VPX FIPS virtual platform as a part of the evaluated configuration. This allows customers to deploy an easy-to-install and on-demand ADC solution that meets Common Criteria security standards.

The Common Criteria certificate was issued by the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) after rigorous testing by an approved third-party laboratory. NIAP is responsible for the U.S implementation of Common Criteria which is an international standard that brings together over 30 member countries under the Common Criteria Recognition Agreement.

The Citrix ADC platforms were rigorously tested for requirements stated in version 2.2e of the Collaborative Protection Profile (cPP) meant for Network Devices, commonly abbreviated as NDcPP v2.2e. The protection profile defines a set of requirements that certified products would have to meet in order to mitigate cybersecurity threats.

Organizations who require Common Criteria certified products can now manage advanced application delivery and security requirements using Citrix ADCs. Customers can leverage advanced traffic management capabilities, integrated security functions and performance optimizations to solve a variety of use cases unique to each deployment.
