Abstract

The European Community, the United States of America and Canada have embarked on a project which results in the next generation of criteria for the evaluation of security in IT-products. The outcome of this project is known as the Common Criteria (CC). The CC aligns the following existing and emerging criteria: ITSEC (Europe) USA New Federal Criteria including TCSEC (Orange Book) CTCPEC (Canada) ISO SC27 WG3 security evaluation criteria. The CC defines a common set of criteria with the potential to ease the mutual recognition of evaluation results between nations. This is intended to facilitate the supply of security-evaluated products by eliminating the costs of multiple evaluations.
