CSIA Claims Tested (CCT) Mark

CSIA is the only global advocacy group dedicated to ensuring the privacy, reliability and integrity of information systems through public policy, technology, education and awareness.

The organization is led by CEOs from the world’s top security providers, who offer the technical expertise, depth and focus to encourage a better understanding of security issues. It is the belief of the CSIA that a comprehensive approach to ensuring the security of information systems is fundamental to global protection and economic stability.

The CSIA Claims Tested (CCT) Mark scheme is a UK government-sponsored assurance scheme which, through accredited independent testing, provides the public sector with confidence in the claims made by security software vendors about the functionality of their information, products and services. The Scheme provides a basic level of assurance (equivalent to Common Criteria EAL1) to these products and services, and will give confidence to purchasers that the Vendor’s security functionality claims have been validated. The Scheme is aimed primarily at those products and services which may be purchased by central government and the wider public sector, particularly the NHS, Education, Local Authorities and Criminal Justice. The Scheme was launched on 8 September 2005, by Cabinet Office Minister, Jim Murphy.
