Assumptions derived from the Common Criteria
DEFINITION
The common criteria evaluate (on an Evaluation Assurance Level or EAL scale of 1 to 7) a product’s
capacity to provide security functions for which it had been designed, as well as the quality of its life
cycle (development, production, delivery, putting into service, updates). They are a convergence of
different security-related quality standards devised since 1980:
Orange Book – DoD
CTCPEC (Canadian Trusted Computer Product Evaluation Criteria)
ITSEC (Information Technology Security Evaluation Criteria)
TCSEC (Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria)
Introduction
The installation of a Firewall often comes within the scope of setting up a global security policy. To
ensure optimal protection of your assets, resources or information, it is not only a matter of installing
a Firewall between your network and the Internet. This is mainly because the majority of attacks
come from the inside (accidents, disgruntled employees, dismissed employee having retained
internal access, etc.). And one would also agree that installing a steel security door defeats its
purpose when the walls are made of paper.
Backed by the Common Criteria, NETASQ advises taking into consideration the assumptions of use for
the Administration Suite and Firewall product stated below. These assumptions set out the usage
requirements by which to abide in order to ensure that your Firewall operates within the context of
the common criteria certification.
