What is the difference between an AISEP evaluation and an AISEP certification?
AISEP evaluations are conducted by an AISEF. AISEP certification is performed by the ACA. An AISEP evaluation applies the CC Evaluation Methodology (CEM) against CC assurance requirements. The evaluation aims to produce a standardised and repeatable result that facilitates mutual recognition of evaluation results across CCRA participating schemes. An AISEP certification represents the validation of the evaluation activities and results and is tailored to the certifying body’s regulatory framework. The ACA’s regulatory framework is defined in the AISEP Publications (AP) 1 to 4.
