In an increasingly interconnected world, cybersecurity has become more than just a technical requirement, it's a critical shield protecting organizations from potential digital threats. Common Criteria (CC), an internationally recognized standard also known as ISO/IEC 15408, emerges as a comprehensive framework that meticulously evaluates the security properties of IT products and systems. This international standard provides a structured approach to assessing technological security, offering governments, enterprises, and technology developers a robust methodology for understanding and validating the security mechanisms embedded within their digital solutions. Moreover, Common Criteria serves as a critical benchmark, ensuring that technological products meet rigorous security standards before entering the marketplace.

As Europe advances its digital transformation agenda, securing its technological infrastructure has become a top priority. At the center of this ambition lies the European cybersecurity certification ecosystem. Most notably, the European Cybersecurity Certification Scheme (EUCC).

But while EUCC represents a major achievement in digital sovereignty, a crucial question remains: Is it enough? This article explores what the European Cybersecurity Certification does well, where its current limitations lie, and what additional steps are necessary to create a truly resilient cybersecurity landscape across Europe.
