In this episode of the Endace Packet Forensics Files, Cary and I delve into the crucial role of Federal security certifications such as FIPS, NIAP, and DoD APL in strengthening cybersecurity tools through rigorous security testing procedures.
Cary discusses how these standards bolster network device security and also outlines how they are continuously updated to meet emerging cybersecurity challenges. This ensures their applicability not just for government and defense sectors but also for large enterprise organizations across various industries.
We explore the challenges and costs for vendors to ensure their products are tested to comply with these certifications, as well as the benefits that the testing and validation process delivers; for example, ensuring enhanced protocol security.
