Army CoN Certification Validates that Ivanti Patch for Windows Meets Strict U.S. Army and Department of Defense (DoD) Standards for Security, Compatibility and Sustainability

SALT LAKE CITY — February 5, 2019 — Ivanti, the company that unifies IT to better manage and secure the digital workplace, today announced that Ivanti® Patch for Windows has been awarded the U.S. Army's Certificate of Networthiness (CoN 201823072) by the U.S. Army Network Enterprise Technology Command (NETCOM). The Networthiness Certification Program manages the specific risks and impacts associated with the fielding of Information Systems (ISs) and supporting efforts, requires formal certification throughout the life cycle of all ISs that use the Information Technology (IT) infrastructure, and sustains the health of the Army Enterprise Infrastructure.

Networthiness Certification is concerned with the identification, measurement, control, and minimization of security risks and impacts in IT systems to a level commensurate with the value of the assets protected. The new Army CoN for Ivanti Patch for Windows 9.3 Update 1 is an extension of an earlier certification earned under the Shavlik brand prior to becoming Ivanti. The certification is part of Ivanti's continued focus in certifying that its solutions will meet evolving customer needs. The Ivanti Patch for Windows CoN can be found on the AKO Networthiness website using CoN CERT-201823072.

The Army CoN comes shortly after receiving an extension of the Ivanti Patch for Windows Common Criteria EAL 2+. Additional details on the Common Criteria listing for Ivanti can be found on the Common Criteria Certified Products Portal, including the updated Maintenance Report and Security Target.
