Windows Mobile @ TechEd - Security & Common Criteria
RickA picked-up that I had missed one session off the TechEd Mobile sessions post - and it's a really important one too.
Security & Windows Mobile is always a key discussion point. In March Windows Mobile 5 (+MSFP) and 6 received Common Criteria EAL2+ certification, in August Windows Mobile 6.1 complete evaluation for EAL2+ and is now listed on the Defence Signal Directorate's Evaluated Product List (http://www.dsd.gov.au/infosec/evaluation_services/epl/epl.html). Common Criteria Certification is recognised across 24 countries, and the Windows Mobile platform is now at the same EAL level as RIM's solution (BBWS 4.1.0, 4.2.0, 4.2.1, 4.2.2 & BES 4.1 & 4.2).
The testing for this certification was performed in Canberra, and we are privileged to have one of the key personnel involved in the Common Criteria testing lab, Aleks Lubiejewski, to present this session.
| SEC309 | Thursday 14:00 | Windows Mobile Security Architecture | Windows Mobile 5, 6 and 6.1 are now Common Criteria EAL2+ certified. Understand from the licensed evaluation facility that performed the Common Criteria testing, what the security profile of Windows Mobile is so you can fully understand how to use the range of security features offered on Windows Mobile powered Smartphones and PDAs. |
