IT security services

Security can't tolerate bugs. Even the smallest mistake in design or implementation can lead to an exploitable vulnerability which can undermine the security of an IT system. Therefore it is essential that security-critical software and hardware products should be tested and evaluated according to strict security requirements before released to the market.

SEARCH-LAB Security Evaluation Analysis and Research Laboratory is specialized in independent security evaluation of IT products, provides services to leading system and application developers and helps them to make their solutions and products protected against hackers.

Security evaluation requires both intelligence and unceasing systematics. That's why SEARCH-LAB combines the human intelligence based manual MEFORMA security auditing methodology and the automated Flinder security and robustness testing framework to provide the best possible security assurance level in a cost effective manner. For more information about a comparison of the two technologies, click here.

Additionally to auditing and testing, SEARCH-LAB provides traditional IT security consultancy services (such as security management consultancy, requirement specification or site inspections) as well as Common Criteria services (such as writing Protection Profile and Security Target specifications or conducting AVA vulnerability assessments).
