1.4.2.1 Cryptographic Support
The TOE provides IPsec VPN functionality for clients wishing to securely communicate with remote
parties over unsecured networks. The TOE supports IPsec sessions established using IKEv2. The VPN
tunnels are configured and controlled by Network Extension Framework, which is a part of the host
operating system’s Core OS Layer.
There are two cryptographic modules on the platforms on which the TOE runs, Apple iOS CoreCrypto
Kernel Module v8 and Apple iOS CoreCrypto Module v8. Both cryptographic modules are used together
on each platform/processor. These provide all TOE required cryptographic services including,
cryptographic key generation, key storage, AES encryption and decryption, cryptographic signature
services, cryptographic hashing, keyed-hash message authentication and random bit generation.
1.4.2.2 Identification and Authentication
All validation of X.509 certificates is performed by the iOS platform that the TOE is running on.
1.4.2.3 User Data Protection
The TOE zeroizes all memory used to store packet contents upon reallocation for another purpose.
1.4.2.4 Security Management
The TOE provides the ability to manage all security functionality required by the Protection Profile via
the use of configuration files (profiles).
1.4.2.5 Protection of the TSF
The TOE platform performs cryptographic self-tests at startup which ensures the TOE ability to properly
operate. The TOE platform also verifies all software updates via digital signature.
1.4.2.6 Trusted Path/Channels
The TOE is an IPsec VPN client. The TOE has the ability to establish IKEv2/IPsec protected
communications with VPN gateways.
1.5 Operational Environment
In its evaluated configuration, the TOE is designed to support users in an enterprise setting by providing
always-on connectivity via IPSec VPN tunnel in order to provide secure, reliable access to enterprise
assets while on the go. To that end, certain elements of IT Infrastructure are utilized
1.5.1 IT Infrastructure
The following elements of IT Infrastructure are assumed to be present:
 A VPN Gateway to service connections from the TOE
 Mobile Device Management (MDM) system
 In order to operate in the evaluated configuration, the device must be “supervised” and
enrolled in some MDM platform, capable of configuring and publishing the necessary
Configuration Profile payload to the device
 A PKI system
 If the TOE will be utilizing x509 certificates for authenticating to the VPN connection,
then an enterprise PKI system will need to be in place with the following features:
i. A CA trusted by both the VPN gateway and the TOE Platform
ii. An OCSP responder or published CRL to service revocation checking requests.

2.4 Conformance Rationale
This Security Target provides exact conformance to Version 1.4 of the IPsec Virtual Private Network
(VPN) Clients Protection Profile. The security problem definition, security objectives and security
requirements in this Security Target are all taken from the Protection Profile performing only operations
defined there.
13
3 Security Problem Definition
The security problem definition has been taken from [VPNPP] and is reproduced here for the
convenience of the reader.
3.1 Unauthorized Access to User and TOE Data (T.UNAUTHORIZED_ACCESS)
[VPNPP] does not include requirements that can protect against an insider threat. Authorized users are
not considered hostile or malicious and are trusted to follow appropriate guidance. Only authorized
personnel should have access to the client device. Therefore, the primary threat agents are the
unauthorized entities that try to gain access to the protected network.
The gateway endpoint of the network communication can be both geographically and logically distant
from the TOE, and pass through a variety of other systems. These intermediate systems may be under
the control of the adversary, and offer an opportunity for communications over the network to be
compromised.
Plaintext communication over the network may allow critical data (such as passwords, configuration
settings, and user data) to be read and/or manipulated directly by intermediate systems, leading to a
compromise of the TOE. IPsec can be used to provide protection for this communication; however, there
are a myriad of options that can be implemented for the protocol to be compliant to the protocol
specification listed in the RFC. Some of these options can have negative impacts on the security of the
connection. For instance, using a weak encryption algorithm (even one that is allowed by the RFC, such
as DES) can allow an adversary to read and even manipulate the data on the encrypted channel, thus
circumventing countermeasures in place to prevent such attacks. Further, if the protocol is implemented
with little-used or non-standard options, it may be compliant with the protocol specification but will not
be able to interact with other, diverse equipment that is typically found in large enterprises.
Even though the communication path is protected, there is a possibility that the remote VPN Gateway
could be duped into thinking that a malicious third-party user or system is the TOE. For instance, a
middleman could intercept a connection request to the TOE, and respond to the VPN Gateway as if it
were the TOE. In a similar manner, the TOE could also be duped into thinking that it is establishing
communications with a legitimate remote VPN Gateway when in fact it is not. An attacker could also
mount a malicious man-in-the-middle-type of attack, in which an intermediate system is compromised,
and the traffic is proxied, examined, and modified by this system. This attack can even be mounted via
encrypted communication channels if appropriate countermeasures are not applied. These attacks are,
in part, enabled by a malicious attacker capturing network traffic (for instance, an authentication
session) and “playing back” that traffic in order to fool an endpoint into thinking it was communicating
with a legitimate remote entity.
3.2 Inability to Configure the TSF (T.TSF_CONFIGURATION)
Configuring VPN tunnels is a complex and time-consuming process, and prone to errors if the interface
for doing so is not well-specified or well-behaved. The inability to configure certain aspects of the
interface may also lead to the mis-specification of the desired communications policy or use of
cryptography that may be desired or required for a particular users’ site. This may result in unintended
weak or plain-text communications while the user thinks that their data are being protected. Other
aspects of configuring the TOE or using its security mechanisms (for example, the update process) may
also result in a reduction in the trustworthiness of the VPN client.
3.3 Malicious Updates (T.UNAUTHORIZED_UPDATE)
Since the most common attack vector used involves attacking unpatched versions of software
14
containing well-known flaws, updating the VPN client is necessary to ensure that changes to threat
environment are addressed. Timely application of patches ensures that the client is a “hard target”, thus
increasing the likelihood that product will be able to maintain and enforce its security policy. However,
the updates to be applied to the product must be trustable in some manner; otherwise, an attacker can
write their own “update” that instead contains malicious code of their choosing, such as a rootkit, bot,
or other malware. Once this “update” is installed, the attacker then has control of the system and all of
its data.
Methods of countering this threat typically involve hashes of the updates, and potentially cryptographic
operations (e.g., digital signatures) on those hashes as well. However, the validity of these methods
introduces additional threats. For instance, a weak hash function could result in the attacker being able
to modify the legitimate update in such a way that the hash remained unchanged. For cryptographic
signature schemes, there are dependencies on
1) the strength of the cryptographic algorithm used to provide the signature, and
2) the ability of the end user to verify the signature (which typically involves checking a hierarchy of
digital signatures back to a root of trust (a certificate authority)).
If a cryptographic signature scheme is weak, then it may be compromised by an attacker and the end
user will install a malicious update, thinking that it is legitimate. Similarly, if the root of trust can be
compromised, then a strong digital signature algorithm will not stop the malicious update from being
installed (the attacker will just create their own signature on the update using the compromised root of
trust, and the malicious update will then be installed without detection).
3.4 User Data Disclosure (T.USER_DATA_REUSE)
Data traversing the TOE could inadvertently be sent to a different user; since these data may be
sensitive, this may cause a compromise that is unacceptable. The specific threat that must be addressed
concerns user data that is retained by the TOE in the course of processing network traffic that could be
inadvertently re-used in sending network traffic to a user other than that intended by the sender of the
original network traffic.
3.5 TSF Failure (T. TSF_FAILURE)
Security mechanisms of the TOE generally build up from a primitive set of mechanisms (e.g., memory
management, privileged modes of process execution) to more complex sets of mechanisms. Failure of
the primitive mechanisms could lead to a compromise in more complex mechanisms, resulting in a
compromise of the TSF.
15
4 Security Objectives
The security objectives have been taken from [VPNPP] and are reproduced here for the convenience of
the reader.
4.1 Security Objectives for the TOE
4.1.1 Establish VPN Tunnels
To address the issues concerning transmitting sensitive data between the TOE and the VPN Gateway
described in Section 2.1, compliant TOEs will provide an encrypted channel for these communication
paths between themselves and the VPN Gateway. These channels are implemented using IPsec. IPsec is
specified by RFCs that offer a variety of implementation choices. Requirements have been imposed on
some of these choices (particularly those for cryptographic primitives) to provide interoperability and
resistance to cryptographic attack. While compliant TOEs must support all of the choices specified in the
ST, they may support additional algorithms and protocols. If such additional mechanisms are not
evaluated, guidance must be given to the administrator to make clear the fact that they are not
evaluated.
In addition to providing protection from disclosure (and detection of modification) for the
communications, IPsec offers two-way authentication of each endpoint in a cryptographically secure
manner, meaning that even if there was a malicious attacker between the two endpoints, any attempt
to represent themselves to either endpoint of the communications path as the other communicating
party would be detected. This authentication is done using X.509 certificates to provide greater
assurance in the authentication than is the case with pre-shared keys (although pre-shared keys may be
supported by compliant TOEs as long as the use of certificates is also supported). The requirements on
the IPsec protocol, in addition to the structure of the protocol itself, provides protection against replay
attacks such as those described in Section 2.1.
(O.VPN_TUNNEL → FCS_CKM.1(1), FCS_CKM.1(2), FCS_CKM.2, FCS_CKM_EXT.4, FCS_COP.1(1),
FCS_COP.1(2), FCS_COP.1(3), FCS_COP.1(4), FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1, FIA_X509_EXT.1, FTP_ITC.1)
4.1.2 Configuration of the TOE
To address the issues concerning the configuration of the TOE described in Section 2.2, the TOE will
provide interfaces to control the configuration of IPsec and the underlying cryptographic mechanisms
supporting the protocol, management of X.509 certificates, and updates to the TOE.
(O.TOE_CONFIGURATION → FMT_SMF.1)
4.1.3 Verifiable Updates
As outlined in Section 2.3, failure to verify that updates to the client can be trusted may lead to
compromise of the security functionality. A first step in establishing trust in the update is to publish a
hash of the update that can be verified prior to installing the update. While this establishes that the
update downloaded is the one associated with the published hash, it does not indicate if the source of
the update/hash combination has been compromised or can't be trusted. To establish trust in the
source of the updates, a cryptographic mechanisms and procedures to procure the update, check the
update cryptographically through the TOE-provided digital signature mechanism, and install the update
will be provided.
(O.VERIFIABLE_UPDATES → FPT_TUD_EXT.1, FCS_COP.1(2), FCS_COP.1(3), FIA_X509_EXT.1)
16
4.1.4 Residual Information Clearing
In order to counter the threat that user data is inadvertently included in network traffic not intended by
the original sender, the TSF ensures that network packets sent from the TOE do not include data "left
over" from the processing of previous network information.
(O.RESIDUAL_INFORMATION_CLEARING → FDP_RIP.2)
4.1.5 TSF Self-Test
In order to detect some number of failures of underlying security mechanisms used by the TSF, the TSF
will perform self-tests. The extent of this self-testing is left to the product developer, but a more
comprehensive set of self-tests should result in a more trustworthy platform on which to develop
enterprise architecture.
(O.TSF_SELF_TEST → FPT_TST_EXT.1)
4.2 Security Objectives for the Operational Environment
4.2.1 OE.NO_TOE_BYPASS
Information cannot flow onto the network to which the VPN client's host is connected without passing
through the TOE.
4.2.2 OE.PHYSICAL
Physical security, commensurate with the value of the TOE and the data it contains, is assumed to be
provided by the operational environment.
4.2.3 OE.TRUSTED_CONFIG
Personnel configuring the TOE and its operational environment will follow the applicable security
configuration guidance.
17

This chapter identifies and describes how the Security Functional Requirements identified above are met
by the TOE. For additional information regarding functionality provided by the TOE platform, the
following document should be referenced, Apple iOS 11 MDFPPv2 Security Target, version 1.0.
TOE SFR Rationale
FCS_CKM.1(1) The TOE platform provides asymmetric key establishment in support of IPsec VPN using
NIST SP 800-56A compliant finite field Diffie-Hellman, NIST SP 800-56A compliant Elliptic
Curve Diffie-Hellman, and NIST SP 800-56B compliant RSA Key Transport. The TOE utilizes
the cryptographic algorithm implementation of the TOE Platform by linking against the
platform cryptographic library. In this way, the TOE can invoke the key establishment
operations provided by the TOE Platform.
These cryptographic algorithms are used for key establishment the VPN peer.
The cryptographic functionality used for IPsec connections is invoked by the TOE by linking
to the platform cryptographic modules. These modules, include, Apple iOS CoreCrypto
Kernel Module v8 and Apple iOS CoreCrypto Module v8. When the TOE needs
cryptographic services in support of an IKE/IPsec connection, the TOE calls the platform
module API. CAVP algorithm certificates were obtained for the TOE’s key generation
implementation.
See the TOE platform ST (VID10851) for details regarding the available algorithm validation
certificates (CAVP). In addition to the algorithm validation certificates (CAVP) listed in the
platform Security Target, the following CAVP certificates were obtained for DSA, 1334,
1333, 1332, 1331, 1330, 1329, 1328, 1327.
FCS_CKM.1(2) The TOE platform provides cryptographic signature services using RSA Digital Signatures, as
specified in FIPS 186-4, and ECDSA using NIST curves P-256 and P-384, as specified in FIPS
186-4, in support of IKE/IPsec session authentication.

Kernel Module v8 and Apple iOS CoreCrypto Module v8. When the TOE needs
cryptographic services in support of an IKE/IPsec connection, the TOE calls the platform
module API. CAVP algorithm certificates were obtained for the TOE’s digital signature
implementation.
See the TOE platform ST (VID10851) for details regarding the available algorithm validation
certificates (CAVP). In addition to the algorithm validation certificates (CAVP) listed in the
platform Security Target, the following CAVP certificates were obtained for SP 800-56A,
1628, 1627, 1626, 1625, 1624, 1623, 1622, 1621.
FCS_CKM_EXT.2 The TOE platform stores all persistent secrets and private keys in the platform’s key chain.
Specifically, the only two types of persistently stored secrets that are required by the TOE
include,
 User IPsec X.509v3 Certificate Keys
 CA IPsec X.509v3 Certificate Public Keys
Both key types are used to facilitate IKE/IPsec protected communications with an IPsec
Gateway. User certificate keys are the TOEs certificate keys and the certificate keys of the
gateway the TOE is connecting with. IPsec CA certificate Public Keys are used as part of
IKE/IPsec session establishment. Each persistent secret is store within the platform's key
chain.
FCS_CKM_EXT.4 The TOE and TOE platform in combination meet all requirements for destruction of keys
25
TOE SFR Rationale
and Critical Security Parameters (CSPs). Please refer to Table 7 "Key Zeroization" for more
information on the key zeroization.
FCS_COP.1(1) The TOE Platform provides symmetric encryption and decryption capabilities in support of
IPsec VPN using AES in CBC and GCM mode (with key sizes 128 and 256 bits) as described in
NIST SP 800-38A and NIST SP 800-38D.
These cryptographic algorithms are used for bulk encryption with VPN peers.
The cryptographic functionality used for IPsec connections is invoked by the TOE by linking
to the platform cryptographic modules. These modules, include, Apple iOS CoreCrypto
Kernel Module v8 and Apple iOS CoreCrypto Module v8. When the TOE needs
cryptographic services in support of an IKE/IPsec connection, the TOE calls the platform
module API. CAVP algorithm certificates were obtained for the TOE’s AES implementation.

certificates (CAVP).
FCS_COP.1(2) The TOE platform provides cryptographic signature services using RSA Digital Signature
Algorithm with key size of 2048 and greater as specified in FIPS PUB 186-4, “Digital
Signature Standard,” Appendix B.3. In addition, the TOE provides cryptographic signature
services using ECDSA with NIST curves P-256 and P-384 as specified in FIPS PUB 186-4,
“Digital Signature Standard,” Appendix B.4. The cryptographic functionality used for IPsec
connections is invoked by the TOE by linking to the platform cryptographic modules.
These cryptographic algorithms are used for digital signature validation services.
These modules, include, Apple iOS CoreCrypto Kernel Module v8 and Apple iOS CoreCrypto
Module v8. When the TOE needs cryptographic services in support of an IKE/IPsec
connection, the TOE calls the platform module API. CAVP algorithm certificates were
obtained for the TOE’s digital signature implementation.
See the TOE platform ST (VID10851) for details regarding the available algorithm validation
certificates (CAVP).
FCS_COP.1(3)
The TOE platform provides cryptographic hashing services using SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384,
and SHA-512 as specified in FIPS Pub 180-4 “Secure Hash Standard.” These hashes are used
in support of digital signatures for IKE/IPsec authentication and HMACs used to verify the
integrity of IKE/IPsec traffic.
These cryptographic algorithms are used for hashing when establishing VPN sessions with a
VPN peer.
The cryptographic functionality used for IPsec connections is invoked by the TOE by linking
to the platform cryptographic modules. These modules, include, Apple iOS CoreCrypto
Kernel Module v8 and Apple iOS CoreCrypto Module v8. When the TOE needs

module API. CAVP algorithm certificates were obtained for the TOE’s hashing
implementation.

certificates (CAVP).
FCS_COP.1(4) The TOE platform provides keyed-hashing message authentication services using HMAC-
SHA-1, HMAC-SHA-256, HMAC-SHA-384, and HMAC-SHA-512, as specified in FIPS Pub 198-
1, "The Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code,” and FIPS 180-4, “Secure Hash
Standard.”
These cryptographic algorithms are used for MACing when establishing VPN sessions with a
26
TOE SFR Rationale
VPN peer.
In the evaluated configuration, the TOE does not support use cases in which the HMAC
hash calculation is truncated (e.g., HMAC-SHA1-96). The HMAC implementation uses the
following values for calculating a MAC (varying based on the specific IPsec connection):
 Key length: 128 to 256 bits
 Hash function: SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512
 Block size: 160, 256, 384, 512 bits
 Output MAC length: 160, 256, 384, 512 bits

to the platform cryptographic modules. These modules, include, Apple iOS CoreCrypto
Kernel Module v8 and Apple iOS CoreCrypto Module v8. When the TOE needs
cryptographic services in support of an IKE/IPsec connection, the TOE calls the platform
module API. CAVP algorithm certificates were obtained for the TOE’s MACing
implementation.
See the TOE platform ST (VID10851) for details regarding the available algorithm validation
certificates (CAVP).
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.1 The TOE implements the IPsec protocol as specified in RFC 4301. Configuration of VPN
connection setting, such as, authentication method and algorithm selection, is performed
by the IPsec VPN client administrator.
The TOE enforces an “always on” configuration meaning that all traffic entering and leaving
the TOE platform interfaces is protected via an IPsec VPN connection. The TOE allows a
limited number of services to be configured to either not allow (DISCARD) or be sent
plaintext (BYPASS). These services include applications that make use of Captive
Networking Identifiers, Voice Mail, and AirPrint. All other communications are always sent
through the IPsec tunnel (PROTECT within the SPD). In order to set a service to match a
PROTECT rule in the SPD, select “Allow traffic via tunnel.” “Drop Traffic” will cause that
traffic to match a DISCARD rule. “Allow traffic outside tunnel” will create a BYPASS rule for
that service.
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.2/
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.4/
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.5/
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.6/
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.11
The TOE platform supports the following IPsec connection characteristics,
• IKEv2 (as defined in RFCs 5996 and 4307),
• Tunnel Mode
• Symmetric algorithms for IKE and ESP encryption (AES-GCM-128, AES-GCM-256,
AES-CBC-128, and AES-CBC-256),
• Integrity mechanisms (HMAC-SHA1, HMAC-SHA-256, HMAC-SHA-384, and HMAC-
SHA-512),
• Key Exchange (Diffie-Hellman Groups 1(768-bit MODP), 2(1024-bit MODP),
5(1536-bit MODP), 14(2048-bit MODP), 15(3072-bit MODP), 16(4096-bit MODP),
17(6144-bit MODP), 18(8192-bit MODP), 19(256-bit Random ECP), and 20 (384-bit
Random ECP)
Each of these cryptographic mechanisms are provided by one of the following two
cryptographic modules, Apple iOS CoreCrypto Kernel Module v8 or Apple iOS CoreCrypto
Module v8.
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.3 All data (other than what was described above) is sent through the encrypted tunnel. Any
other plaintext data that is received is ignored. This happens automatically without the
need to configure an explicit discard.
27
TOE SFR Rationale
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.7 Not Applicable – The TOE does not support IKEv1. The TOE only supports IKEv2 in the
evaluated configuration.
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.8 The TOE supports configurable time-based lifetimes for both IKEv2 Phase 1 and Phase 2
SAs. Phase 1 SAs are configurable to 24 hours and phase 2 SAs are configurable to 8 hours.
Configuration settings are applied to the TOE via .xml profiles. These profiles can be
generated via an MDM, an iOS specific tool such as “Apple Configurator,” or by manually
editing the .xml file directly.
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.9/
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.10
The TOE generates the secret value ‘x’ and nonces used in the IKEv2 Diffie-Hellman key
exchanges using the TOE platform CAVP validated DRBG specified (as specified in
FCS_RBG_EXT.1). The possible lengths of ‘x’ and the nonces are 224, 256, or 384 bits.
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.11 The TOE supports the following key exchange groups, Diffie-Hellman Groups 1(768-bit
MODP), 2(1024-bit MODP), 5(1536-bit MODP), 14(2048-bit MODP), 15(3072-bit MODP),
16(4096-bit MODP), 17(6144-bit MODP), 18(8192-bit MODP), 19(256-bit Random ECP), and
20 (384-bit Random ECP). The TOE will only negotiate Diffie-Hellman groups based on the
configuration applied by the administrator. Groups not included in the configuration profile
are not be used.
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.12 The supported peer authentication mechanisms, include, RSA or ECDSA X.509v3 digital
certificate authentication.
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.13 As part of the peer authentication process, a comparison is made of the distinguished name
(DN) contained within the peer certificate (specifically the Subject CN, as well as any
Subject Alternative Name fields) to the DN of the requested server. If the DN in the
certificate does not match the expected DN for the peer, then the session will not be
established.
FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1.14 The strength of the symmetric algorithm (in terms of the number of bits in the key)
negotiated to protect the IKEv2/IKE_SA connection and the strength of the symmetric
algorithm negotiated to protect the IKEv2 CHILD_SA connection is configured using .xml
configuration files. The administrator must explicitly choose the cryptographic algorithms
(including key strength) used for each SA. During negotiation the TOE will only negotiate
the configured algorithms which must include an IKEv2/IKE_SA at least that of IKEv2
CHILD_SA.
FCS_RBG_EXT.1 The TOE platforms implements a NIST-approved AES-CTR Deterministic Random Bit
Generator (DRBG), as specified in SP 800-90. The random number generation used for IPsec
connections is invoked by the TOE by linking to the platform cryptographic modules.
These cryptographic algorithms are used for random bit generations part of establishing
VPN sessions with a VPN peer.
These modules, include, Apple iOS CoreCrypto Kernel Module v8 and Apple iOS CoreCrypto
Module v8. When the TOE needs random numbers in support of an IKE/IPsec connection,
the TOE calls the platform module API. CAVP algorithm certificates were obtained for the
TOE’s random bit generation implementation.
See the TOE platform ST (VID10851) for details regarding the available algorithm validation
certificates (CAVP).
The information on the entropy source has been provided to NIAP as part of this
evaluation.
FDP_RIP.2
When the TOE allocates a new packet buffer, the new packet data is used to overwrite any
previous data in the buffer. The TOE keeps track of the new packet data size compared to
28
TOE SFR Rationale
the size of the allocated buffer. If the totality of the new packet data is less than the
allocated buffer, the additional allocated space will be filled with zeros prior to sending the
packet to its destination.
FIA_X509_EXT.1
The TOE leverages X.509 certificate validation services provided by the TOE platform to
validate certificates presented by its VPN peers.
The X.509 certificates are validated using the certificate path validation algorithm defined
in RFC 5280, which can be summarized as follows:
 the public key algorithm and parameters are checked
 the current date/time is checked against the validity period
 revocation status is checked
 issuer name of X matches the subject name of X+1
 name constraints are checked
 policy OIDs are checked
 policy constraints are checked; issuers are ensured to have CA signing bits
 path length is checked
 critical extensions are processed
In order to verify the revocation status of the presented certificates both Certificate
revocation Lists (CRLs) and Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) is used.
FIA_X509_EXT.2
X.509v3 certificates are supported for authentication for IPsec VPN connections, code
signing for software updates, and software integrity checks.
The certificates used for both code signing for software updates, and software integrity
checks come pre-installed in ROM during manufacturing. These are the only certificates
used for this purpose.
The certificate used for IPsec VPN connection are loaded as all other configuration
information is loaded, via an .xml configuration file. The TOE will only use the pre-installed
certificates for code signing for software updates and software integrity checks. The TOE
will only use the configured certificates for IPsec VPN connections.
The TOE receives its peer X.509 certificate during the initial establishment of an IPsec
tunnel. If during the revocation check of this certificate, the OCSP server cannot contacted,
the connection will be established. If the certificate is deemed to be invalid via a revocation
check, the communication will cease immediately and a connection will not be established.
FMT_SMF.1 The following security management functions are provided directly by the TOE,
• Selection of the VPN gateway,
• Presentation of credentials (X.509v3 certificate) used to connect to the gateway.
The client itself uses X.509 digital certificates for authenticating to a VPN gateway when
establishing an IPsec connection. This certificate may be imported by a user (if allowed by
the policy) or installed using configuration profiles. The list of supported certificate and
formats, include,
 X.509 certificates,
 File extensions cer, .crt, .der, .p12, and .pfx
The following management functions are provided by the TOE platform.
TOE configuration happens by an administrative user using .xml profiles on the TOE
platform. These profiles can be created in various ways, including, via an MDM, an iOS
specific tool such as “Apple Configurator,” or by manually editing the .xml file directly.
The following management functionality can be configured by loading the .xml profiles,
29
TOE SFR Rationale
• IKE configuration, including, authentication parameters, algorithms, SA lifetimes.
• IPsec connection configuration, including, algorithm suites that may be used and
SA lifetimes.
• Configuration of certificate revocation checking.
• Loading of X.509v3 certificates used for IPsec VPN connections.
The TOE platform directly provides the following management capabilities.
• Updating the TOE software,
• Verifying TOE software updates
FPT_TST_EXT.1 A suite of power-on self-tests are run during start-up for all cryptographic functionality.
These tests include,
Software Integrity Test: This test verifies the integrity of the installed software using the
2048-bit RSA signature verified using the key of the installed software integrity certificate.
Algorithm Tests for the following algorithms:
 AES KAT: These test takes a known plaintext value and encrypts it using a known
key. The test is also performed in reverse using a known encrypted value and a
known key.
 SHS KAT: This test takes a known value hashes that value and compares it to a
known hash.
 HMAC KAT: This test takes a known value and known key and calculates a MAC.
This MAC is compared to a known MAC.
 RSA KAT: This test takes a known key pair performs an encrypt and decrypt
operation on a known value. The final value is compared to the original value.
 ECDSA PWCT: This test takes a key pair and signs a known value. The signature is
then verified against the original value.
 DRBG KAT: This test takes known seed values and feeds them into the DRBG
implementation. The output is compared to the known output value.
The implemented self-tests verify both that the software itself hasn’t been tamper with or
corrupted (ensuring that the functions operate as expected) and that the cryptography
(which is vital to the operation of a VPN client) is operating correctly. Both of these tests
ensure the product is operating correctly. If all tests successfully complete, the TOE moves
to an operational state.
In the event that a test fails, the TOE platform kernel will panic, rendering the device
inoperable.
FPT_TUD_EXT.1 The TOE platform cryptographically verifies the integrity of all software updates it receives
prior to execution. The TOE platform verifies the software update using a PKCS#1 (using
SHA-256) signature of the software executable code to ensure that it has not been
modified or corrupted. If the integrity test on the software update fails, the TOE will not
load the software update.
The TOE may only load software originating from Apple and signed with Apple’s private
signing key. As with all other certificates on the device, the certificate used to sign the
software updates are stored encrypted by the platform in the key chain.
FTP_ITC.1 The TOE connects with a remote IPsec VPN Gateway using the IPsec functionality described
in FCS_IPSEC_EXT.1 of this table. All communications between the TOE and the IPsec VPN
Gateway are protected via this connection.
