Assumption  

Assumption Definition 

those services necessary for the operation, 
administration and support of the TOE. 

A.PHYSICAL 

Physical security, commensurate with the value of 
the TOE and the data it contains, is assumed to be 
provided by the environment. 

A.TRUSTED_ADMIN 

TOE Administrators are trusted to follow and 
apply all administrator guidance in a trusted 
manner. 

 

3.5  Threats 

The following table lists the threats addressed by the TOE and the IT Environment.  The 
assumed level of expertise of the attacker for all the threats identified below is Basic. 

Table 11 Threats 

Threat  

Threat Definition 

T.ADMIN_ERROR 

An administrator may unintentionally install or 
configure the TOE incorrectly, resulting in 
ineffective security mechanisms. 

T.RESOURCE_EXHAUSTION  A process or user may deny access to TOE services 

by exhausting critical resources on the TOE. 

T.TSF_FAILURE 

Security mechanisms of the TOE may fail, leading 
to a compromise of the TSF. 

T.UNDETECTED_ACTIONS 

Malicious remote users or external IT entities may 
take actions that adversely affect the security of the 
TOE. These actions may remain undetected and 
thus their effects cannot be effectively mitigated. 

T.UNAUTHORIZED_ACCESS  A user may gain unauthorized access to the TOE 

data and TOE executable code. A malicious user, 
process, or external IT entity may masquerade as an 
authorized entity in order to gain unauthorized 
access to data or TOE resources. A malicious user, 
process, or external IT entity may misrepresent 
itself as the TOE to obtain identification and 
authentication data. 

T.UNAUTHORIZED_UPDATE  A malicious party attempts to supply the end user 

with an update to the product that may compromise 
the security features of the TOE. 

T.USER_DATA_REUSE 

User data may be inadvertently sent to a destination 
not intended by the original sender.
