Understand how assurance evidence can support product purchasing decisions.

Organisations looking to purchase products should decide whether they require independent assurance of a product’s security features.
If so, purchasers should examine the information available on the Certified Products List, such as the Security Target and Certification Report, for any product they intend to purchase. On request, the ACA may be able to provide draft versions of the Security Target to potential Australian or New Zealand purchasers while the product is still under evaluation.
Products that provide a much greater level of continuing assurance are those where the vendor either has an ongoing assurance continuity program involving discussion of changes with the certification authority, and re-evaluation activities where necessary, or an evaluated flaw remediation process.
