IDS Certification

The IDS Certification is a perspective in the IDS-RAM and its approach is described in detail in the IDS Certification scheme (general structure, operational structure, and maintenance of the certification criteria).

• The certification scheme describes the operational model and roles in the IDS Certification.

• The rules of procedure include the formal outline of organizational processes

• Approval of evaluators

• Execution of evaluations

• The certification criteria list the formal aspects of evaluations for the core components and the operational environment.

While the certification scheme and the documents listed above describe the formal aspects of IDS Certifications, the IDS testbed provides the tools and technological basis for evaluating the IDS core components.
