Common Criteria Evaluations

["M.D.Mufambisi" <mufambisi () gmail com>]

Hi people. Im hoping someone here will be able to assist me. I have
just been going through the common criteria evaluations. Of particular
interest is the fact that Microsoft 2008 Server has an eavluation EAL1
yet XP SP2 has evaluation of EAL3. What does this mean with regards to
security and functionality? Does a product get re-evaluated say when a
service pack has been released? Are there particular instances where
one specifically looks for software of a particular assurance level?
