Canadian Trusted Computer Product Evaluation Criteria

Add article description

The Canadian Trusted Computer Product Evaluation Criteria (CTCPEC) is a computer security standard published in 1993 by the Communications Security Establishment to provide an evaluation criterion on IT products. It is a combination of the TCSEC (also called Orange Book) and the European ITSEC approaches.

CTCPEC led to the creation of the Common Criteria standard.[1]

The Canadian System Security Centre, part of the Communications Security Establishment was founded in 1988 to establish a Canadian computer security standard. [2] The Centre published a draft of the standard in April 1992.[2] The final version was published in January 1993.[2]
