export for certificate request, certificate import, signature export, signer bundle, Signer SAP
information and internal audit) are only used in an authorized way.
- Manages (generation, backup, usage and destruction) SCD and SVD of the Signer using an
external HSM, and authentication information of the Signer provided by SCA or external
trusted source and produce CSR in order to be delivered to CA.
- Links a Signer to SAP/SAD with SCD and SVD and DTBS/R in order to guaranty that the Signer
has sole control over his SCD.
- Two independent authenticator factors are combined in the SAD/SAP in order to gain access
to Signer’s SCD.

SECURITY POLICIES
The use of the product ANCERT Server Signing Application v1.1.8 shall implement a set of security
policies assuring the fulfilment of different standards and security demands.
The detail of these policies is documented in [ST], chapter 4.4 (Organizational policies).
ASSUMPTIONS AND OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT
The assumptions detailed in [ST], chapter 4.5 (Assumptions) are constraints to the conditions used
to assure the security properties and functionalities compiled by the security target. These
assumptions have been applied during the evaluation in order to determine if the identified
vulnerabilities can be exploited.
In order to assure the secure use of the TOE, it is necessary to start from these assumptions for its
operational environment. If this is not possible and any of them could not be assumed, it would not
be possible to assure the secure operation of the TOE.
CLARIFICATIONS ON NON-COVERED THREATS
The threats detailed in [ST], chapter 4.3 (Threats) not suppose a risk for the product ANCERT Server
Signing Application v1.1.8, although the agents implementing attacks have the attack potential

organismo.certificacion@cni.es
The evaluator has performed an installation and configuration of the TOE and its operational
environment following the steps included in the installation and operation manuals. The TOE
configuration used to execute the independent tests is consistent with the evaluated configuration
according to the Security Target [ST].
The evaluator has repeated all the cases specified by the developer in the test documentation and
has compared the obtained results with those obtained by the developer and documented in each
associated report. The test repetition performed by the evaluator has demonstrated that the test
plan and report provided by the vendor contains information enough to make a reader able to
repeat all tests included. Additionally, after the repetition, the evaluator has obtained the same
results as the expected ones. The independent testing has covered 100% of SFRs of the [ST] and
TSFIs defined in the functional specification for the TOE, sampling has not been performed. The test
cases have taken into account critical parameters values, searching that the TOE behaves in a non-
expected manner. There has not been any deviation from the expected results under the
environment defined in the Security Target [ST].
PENETRATION TESTING
The evaluator has performed an installation and configuration of the TOE and its operational
environment following the steps included in the installation and operation manuals. The TOE does
NOT present exploitable vulnerabilities under the environment defined in the Security Target [ST].
All identified vulnerabilities can be considered closed if the TOE is installed and operated according
to the Security Target [ST] and related documentation. The overall test result is that no deviations
were found between the expected and the actual test results taking into account that environment.
No attack scenario with the attack potential “High” has been successful in the TOE’s operational
environment as defined in the Security Target [ST] when all measures required by the developer are
applied.

RECOGNITION AGREEMENTS
In order to avoid multiple certification of the same product in different countries a mutual
recognition of IT security certificates - as far as such certificates are based on ITSEC or CC - under
certain conditions was agreed.
European Recognition of ITSEC/CC – Certificates (SOGIS-MRA)
The SOGIS-Mutual Recognition Agreement (SOGIS-MRA) Version 3 became effective in April 2010. It
defines the recognition of certificates for IT-Products at a basic recognition level and, in addition, at
higher recognition levels for IT-Products related to certain SOGIS Technical Domains only.
The basic recognition level includes Common Criteria (CC) Evaluation Assurance Levels EAL 1 to EAL
4 and ITSEC Evaluation Assurance Levels E1 to E3 (basic). For "Smartcards and similar devices" a
SOGIS Technical Domain is in place. For "HW Devices with Security Boxes" a SOGIS Technical
Domains is in place, too. In addition, certificates issued for Protection Profiles based on Common
Criteria are part of the recognition agreement.
The new agreement has been signed by the national bodies of Austria, Finland, France, Germany,
Italy, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom. The current list of
signatory nations and approved certification schemes, details on recognition, and the history of the
agreement can be seen on the website at https://www.sogis.org.
The SOGIS-MRA logo printed on the certificate indicates that it is recognised under the terms of this
agreement by the nations listed above.
The certificate of this TOE is recognized under SOGIS-MRA for all assurance components selected.
International Recognition of CC – Certificates (CCRA)
The international arrangement on the mutual recognition of certificates based on the CC (Common
Criteria Recognition Arrangement, CCRA-2014) has been ratified on 08 September 2014. It covers
CC certificates based on collaborative Protection Profiles (cPP) (exact use), CC certificates based on
assurance components up to and including EAL 2 or the assurance family Flaw Remediation
(ALC_FLR) and CC certificates for Protection Profiles and for collaborative Protection Profiles (cPP).
The CCRA-2014 replaces the old CCRA signed in May 2000 (CCRA-2000). Certificates based on CCRA-
2000, issued before 08 September 2014 are still under recognition according to the rules of CCRA-
2000. For on 08 September 2014 ongoing certification procedures and for Assurance Continuity
(maintenance and re-certification)of old certificates a transition period on the recognition of
certificates according to the rules of CCRA-2000 (i.e. assurance components up to and including EAL
4 or the assurance family Flaw Remediation (ALC_FLR)) is defined until 08 September 2017.
