About sec-certs
We want to become the one-stop shop to explore the Common Criteria / FIPS 140 certification ecosystem. We aggregate and annotate certification data, enabling unified search, vulnerability investigation, trend analyses, side-by-side comparisons, notifications and other features.
The sec-certs tool is an ongoing research project by the Centre for Research on Cryptography and Security. Learn more about our team and research.
Main features
Unified search
Search through our extracted certificate data, filter by categories or status. Explore the certificates without downloading and reading countless PDFs.
Compare certificates using the floating button to see differences between them.
CC PP FIPSCertificate references
Explore the references between certificates in a graph. A certificate referencing another certificate often means that it builds on top of the referenced certificate.
CC FIPSVulnerability investigation
Investigate the vulnerabilities affecting certified products. We automatically map certificates to CVE entries in NIST's National Vulnerability Database affecting them.
The information on relevant CVEs is displayed in the appropriate heuristics section on pages of the affected certificates.
CVE CPETrend visualizations
Explore our analysis of the security certifications landscape as it evolves over time. The analysis results presented here are preliminary, for more, see our published research.
CC PP FIPSOpen source & open data
Contribute to our code or download our extracted dataset in machine-readable format. The full datasets are available below, while individual certificate data is available on each certificate page.
GitHub CC FIPSUpdate notifications
Subscribe to notifications about a vulnerability affecting a set of certified products, all changes in a set of certified products or about new certificates.
