Artikel 1 Definitioner

Summary What does Article 1 of the Technical description of product categories say?

This is a definitions article, establishing the precise meaning of two key technical terms used throughout the regulation.

Rather than creating new standalone definitions, it anchors both terms directly to an existing piece of EU law — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/482 — meaning the definitions are imported from and dependent on that separate regulatory instrument.

Important points:

Two definitions are established: Common Criteria and Common Evaluation Methodology, both relating to IT security evaluation.
Both definitions draw their meaning from Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/482, creating a direct legal dependency on that act.
These definitions lay the terminological foundation for the rest of this regulation, so understanding their source in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/482 is essential for interpreting subsequent articles.
