As security becomes an ever higher priority for
the global business community, IT decision makers need independent
guidance from third-party organizations they can trust. AEP
proudly meets this requirement through a series of important security certifications.
Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS)
Government departments and federal agencies that manage access to highly sensitive applications need 100% confidence that their private data remains totally secure. The AEP Netilla Security Platform (NSP) with Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) support is designed to provide secure remote access to highly confidential data to meet the most stringent U.S., Canadian and U.K. security standards.
The FIPS-certified NSP leverages AEP Networks' revolutionary ACCE Advanced Configurable Crypto Environment (ACCE) technology. ACCE is the next generation, flexible cryptographic platform that provides the highest levels of assurance: FIPS 140.
With the NSP FIPS appliance, employees and trusted partners can quickly and securely reach key applications and sensitive data while meeting the most stringent public sector security requirements in use today.

ICSA Labs' Certified
SSL VPN program
This coveted stamp of approval from ICSA Labs,
an independent division of TruSecure ® Corporation, indicates
that our Netilla Security Platform has successfully passed a
rigorous set of functional and security requirements, and is
in full compliance with ICSA's rigorous security standards.
To achieve certification, the Netilla Security
Platform also met the requirements outlined in ICSA Labs' Cryptography
Product Certification Program. Meeting these requirements ensures
that the Netilla Security Platform has implemented the cryptographic
mechanisms correctly and that it has passed ICSA Labs' rigorous
cryptographic tests.
Virtual Private Network Consortium (VPNC)
VPNC's certification program involves extensive testing that mimics real-world experiences of SSL VPN users. The testing guarantees security, functionality and interoperability with business-critical applications, such as Microsoft Outlook Web Access. Certification also assures SSL VPN users that they can access applications remotely using the latest version of the Mozilla Firefox browser.
VPNC certified the AEP Netilla Security Platform's support for a broad range of SSL VPN features and included separate VPNC testing programs for Basic Interoperability, SSL Portal, SSL Exchange and SSL Firefox.
