This milestone reflects Symantec’s long-standing role as a trusted leader in data security for protection that is secure by design and independently validated. 

Certified from the inside out

Achieving CC EAL2+ certification for DLP 25.1 is not a mere formality. It validates the strong software development foundation and timely vulnerability remediation culture we have built. This globally-recognized, independent certification validates a product's security functions and goes beyond a simple compliance check. The evaluation audits the entire development lifecycle—from how code is written and secured, to how vulnerabilities are addressed and updates are delivered.

For organizations operating in highly regulated environments, this certification also helps simplify compliance efforts and support procurement requirements in regulated sectors that mandate Common Criteria validation.

Leading the way in DLP

Our Common Criteria certification formalizes what we already know to be true: Symantec data security solutions deliver reliable, best-in-class security across the entire data lifecycle—and independent industry recognition consistently backs that up. In 2025, Symantec was:

• Recognized as a Leader in the 2025 IDC MarketScape for Worldwide DLP, with designation as a pioneer in the DLP market. 
• Named a “Top Player” in the Radicati Group’s 2025 Data Loss Prevention Market Quadrant, with recognition for our strong content detection technologies and integration capabilities with both Broadcom and third-party solutions.
