Certification Body

Keysight Certification Body (Keysight CB) is based in Delft, the Netherlands. We provide independent third-party conformity assessment that gives manufacturers confidence that their products or quality systems meet the applicable cybersecurity requirements.

How we work

Keysight CB reviews the evidence resulting from the applicable evaluation or audit, determines whether the relevant requirements have been fulfilled, makes the conformity assessment decision, issues the certificate or approval, and maintains a public register. The evaluations and audits themselves are carried out by qualified laboratories and audit teams approved for each scheme.

Decisions are based on objective evidence and are made by competent personnel who were not involved in the relevant evaluation or audit activities.

Our commitments

Keysight CB is committed to impartiality, confidentiality, competence and consistency. It operates as a distinct function within Keysight, with its own personnel, management and reporting line. We apply documented procedures consistently and fairly, protect the independence of our decisions, and handle information entrusted to us confidentially.

Certification Schemes

Keysight Certificaion Body scheme-specific conformity assessment information is organized by certification scheme.

EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)

Module B: EU-type examination
Module H: Full quality assurance

Module B: EU-type examination

Module B is an EU-type examination route in which a Notified Body assesses whether a product type meets the applicable requirements of the Cyber Resilience Act.

Module B covers the EU-type examination of the product type. Where the applicable conformity assessment route combines Modules B and C, the manufacturer subsequently ensures conformity of production with the approved type under Module C.

What is assessed

Under Module B, the focus is the product type. The assessment considers the applicable CRA requirements, technical documentation and the results of product evaluation and testing.

Product evaluation is performed by a qualified approved laboratory. The evaluation evidence is reviewed by competent Keysight CB personnel who were not involved in the evaluation activities, and Keysight CB makes the conformity assessment decision.

Certification Process

1. Application

The manufacturer submits an application for EU-type examination together with the required product and technical information.

2. Application Review

Keysight CB reviews the application to confirm that the requested assessment is within scope and that the necessary information is available.

3. Product Evaluation

The product is evaluated by a qualified approved laboratory against the applicable CRA requirements.

4. Independent Review

The evaluation results and supporting evidence are reviewed by competent Keysight CB personnel.

5. Conformity Assessment Decision

Based on the review, Keysight CB determines whether the applicable requirements for EU-type examination have been fulfilled.

6. EU-Type Examination Certificate Issuance

Where the requirements are fulfilled, Keysight CB issues the applicable EU-type examination certificate.

7. Changes and Continued Validity

Changes that may affect conformity or the conditions for validity of the certificate are handled in accordance with the applicable requirements and Keysight CB procedures.

Module H: Conformity Based on Full Quality Assurance

Module H is a conformity assessment route based on the manufacturer operating an approved quality system covering the relevant activities required to ensure conformity with the Cyber Resilience Act.

Unlike Module B, which focuses on the assessment of a specific product type, Module H focuses on the manufacturer's quality system and its ability to ensure continued conformity of products within the approved scope.
