Haivision—Getting Certified (Encoders—Of SatBroadcasting™ Interest)


[SatNews] Haivision has announced that its Makito™ product line of video encoders achieved the Common Criteria certification, the international standard for information technology security.

Haivision products, Makito, Makito Air, and Barracuda™, are the first video encoders to receive this certification. Haivision’s Common Criteria certification allows customers to meet U.S. federal government and international information assurance and security requirements, such as the U.S. Department of Defense Information Assurance Certification Process (DIACAP). This certification ensures that program managers and IT staff can dramatically accelerate the time and effort required to acquire and deploy new solutions.

Led by the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP), a joint initiative of the U.S. Government’s National Security Agency (NSA) and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Common Criteria international standard ensures that products achieve a highly repeatable level of platform security and integrity.
