Rainbow awarded with ANSSI’s security certification

What is the CSPN Certification?

The certification, based on the private Cloud deployment of Rainbow, is the most reliable and trustworthy in France. This attestation covers the confidentiality, availability, and integrity of information exchanged during communications set up with Rainbow. Specifically, it addresses the encryption of streams between Rainbow clients and the hosted Rainbow service. It also covers the encryption of streams between two Rainbow clients in the case of point-to-point communication. These exchanges encompass instant messages, files, voice, and video conversations, as well as screen sharing in point-to-point or multipoint scenarios. The assessment also focuses on user password protection and file storage on the server.

From this day, only two other on-premises video conferencing solutions have received the CSPN certification from ANSSI. Rainbow by Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise is the first certified solution in private cloud mode, where service operation is delegated to ALE.
