RE: certification for pki



Title: RE: certification for pki

Russ,

Thanks for the link. I had a quick look at them and I have noted that contrary to the NIST CIMC PP, which as indicated in my previous Email created new security functional requirements even for key management, the SPYRUS CIMS PPs contain no security functional requirements whatsoever about cryptographic functionality. Each SPYRUS's PP contains the same statement, "I haven't got a clue" when addressing Common Criteria requirement statements about cryptographic support. Does SPYRUS plan to add some security functional requirements from the Class FCS on cryptographic support in a future version of its PPs?

Reagards,

Francois

Please take a look at the protection profiles being proposed by SPYRUS.  You can find them at http://www.spyrus.com/documents/cims.  We have released the Level 3 profile to ANSI X9 as a strawman for a financial industry protection profile.
