11 Evaluation Analysis Activities
The evaluation analysis activities involved a structured evaluation of the Hercules®
EVM,
including the following areas:
Configuration management: An analysis of the Hercules®
EVM development environment
and associated documentation was performed. The evaluators found that the Hercules®
EVM
configuration items were clearly marked, and could be modified and controlled. The
developer’s configuration management system was observed during a site visit, and it was
found to be mature and well developed.
Secure delivery and operation: The evaluators examined the delivery documentation and
determined that it described all of the procedures required to maintain the integrity of the
Hercules®
EVM during distribution to the consumer. The evaluators examined and tested the
installation, generation and start-up procedures, and determined that they were complete and
sufficiently detailed to result in a secure configuration.
Design documentation: The evaluators analysed the Hercules®
EVM functional
specification and high-level design; they determined that the documents were internally
consistent, and completely and accurately instantiated all interfaces and security functions.
The evaluators also independently verified that the correspondence mappings between the
design documents were correct.
Guidance documents: The evaluators examined the Hercules®
EVM user and administrator
guidance documentation and determined that it sufficiently and unambiguously described
how to securely use and administer the product, and that it was consistent with the other
documents supplied for evaluation.
Life-cycle support: The evaluators assessed the development security procedures during a
site visit and determined that they detailed sufficient security measures for the development

environment to protect the confidentiality and integrity of the Hercules®
EVM design and
implementation.
Vulnerability assessment: The strength of function claims in the ST were validated through
independent evaluator analysis. The evaluators examined the developer’s vulnerability
analysis for the Hercules®
EVM and found that it sufficiently described each of the potential
vulnerabilities along with a sound rationale as to why it was not exploitable in the intended
environment. Additionally, the evaluators conducted an independent review of public domain
vulnerability databases, and all evaluation deliverables to provide assurance that the
developer has considered all potential vulnerabilities. Penetration testing was conducted by
evaluators, which did not expose any residual vulnerabilities that would be exploitable in the
intended operating environment for the TOE.
All these evaluation activities resulted in PASS verdicts.
12 ITS Product Testing
Testing consists of the following three areas: coverage, functional tests, independent testing.
The evaluators examined the developer’s testing activities and verified that the developer has
met their testing responsibilities.
12.1 Assessment of Developer Tests
The evaluators verified that the developer has met their testing responsibilities by examining
their test evidence, and reviewing their test results, as documented in the ETR2
.
Citadel employs a rigorous testing process that tests the changes and fixes in each release of
the Hercules®
EVM. Comprehensive regression testing is conducted for all releases.
The evaluators analyzed the developer’s test coverage and depth analysis and found them to
be complete and accurate. The correspondence between the tests identified in the developer’s
test documentation and the functional specification was complete.
12.2 Independent Functional Testing
During this evaluation, the evaluators developed independent functional tests by examining
design and guidance documentation, examining the developer's test documentation,
executing a sample of the developer's test cases, and creating test cases that augmented the
developer tests.
All testing was planned and documented to a sufficient level of detail to allow repeatability
of the testing procedures and results. The tests focussed on:
