1 Executive Summary
This report documents the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) assessment of the
evaluation of the Trustwave AppDetectivePRO v10.2 Target of Evaluation (TOE). It presents
the evaluation results, their justifications, and the conformance results. This VR is not an
endorsement of the TOE by any agency of the U.S. Government and no warranty of the TOE is
either expressed or implied. This VR applies only to the specific version and configuration of
the product as evaluated and documented in the ST.
The evaluation was completed by Acumen Security in September 2023. The information in this
report is largely derived from the Evaluation Technical Report (ETR) and associated test report,
all written by Acumen Security. The evaluation determined that the product is both Common
Criteria Part 2 Extended and Part 3 Extended and meets the assurance requirements defined in
the Protection Profile for Application Software, Version 1.4, dated 07 October 2021 [SWAPP].
The Target of Evaluation (TOE) is the Trustwave AppDetective Pro v10.2. The TOE identified
in this Validation Report has been evaluated at a NIAP approved Common Criteria Testing
Laboratory using the Common Methodology for IT Security Evaluation (Version 3.1, Rev. 5) for
conformance to the Common Criteria for IT Security Evaluation (Version 3.1, Rev. 5). This
Validation Report applies only to the specific version of the TOE as evaluated. The evaluation
has been conducted in accordance with the provisions of the NIAP Common Criteria Evaluation
and Validation Scheme and the conclusions of the testing laboratory in the evaluation technical
report are consistent with the evidence provided.
The validation team provided guidance on technical issues and evaluation processes and
reviewed the individual work units documented in the ETR and the Assurance Activities Report
(AAR). The validation team found that the evaluation showed that the product satisfies all of the
functional requirements and assurance requirements stated in the Security Target (ST). Based on
these findings, the validation team concludes that the testing laboratory's findings are accurate,
the conclusions justified, and the conformance results are correct. The conclusions of the testing
laboratory in the ETR are consistent with the evidence produced.
The technical information included in the report was obtained from the Trustwave
AppDetectivePRO v10.2 Security Target, v1.9, September 20, 2023, and analysis performed by
the Validation team.

2 Identification
The CCEVS is a joint National Security Agency (NSA) and National Institute of
Standards (NIST) effort to establish commercial facilities to perform trusted product evaluations.
Under this program, security evaluations are conducted by commercial testing
laboratories called Common Criteria Testing Laboratories (CCTLs) using the Common
Evaluation Methodology (CEM) in accordance with National Voluntary Laboratory Assessment
Program (NVLAP) accreditation.
The NIAP Validation Body assigns Validators to monitor the CCTLs to ensure quality
and consistency across evaluations. Developers of information technology products
desiring a security evaluation contract with a CCTL and pay a fee for their product's
evaluation. Upon successful completion of the evaluation, the product is added to NIAP's
Product Compliance List.
Table 1 provides information needed to completely identify the product, including:
• The Target of Evaluation (TOE): the fully qualified identifier of the product as
evaluated.
• The Security Target (ST), describing the security features, claims, and assurances
of the product.
• The conformance result of the evaluation.
• The Protection Profile(s) to which the product is conformant.
• The organizations and individuals participating in the evaluation.

3 Assumptions & Clarification of Scope
Assumptions
The Security Problem Definition, including the assumptions, may be found in the following
documents:
• Protection Profile for Application Software, Version 1.4, 7 October 2021 (ASPP14)
That information has not been reproduced here and the ASPP14 should be consulted if there is
interest in that material.
The scope of this evaluation was limited to the functionality and assurances covered in the ASPP14
as described for this TOE in the Security Target. Other functionality included in the product was
not assessed as part of this evaluation.
Clarification of Scope
All evaluations (and all products) have limitations, as well as potential misconceptions that need
clarifying. This text covers some of the more important limitations and clarifications of this
evaluation. Note that:
• As with any evaluation, this evaluation only shows that the evaluated configuration meets
the security claims made, with a certain level of assurance. The level of assurance for this
evaluation is defined within the PP_APP_v1.4.
• Apart from the Admin Guide, additional customer documentation for the specific Software
Application was not included in the scope of the evaluation and therefore should not be
relied upon when configuring or operating the TOE as evaluated.
• This evaluation did not specifically search for, nor seriously attempt to counter,
vulnerabilities that were not “obvious” or vulnerabilities to objectives not claimed in the
ST. The CEM defines an “obvious” vulnerability as one that is easily exploited with a
minimum of understanding of the TOE, technical sophistication and resources.
• The evaluation of security functionality of the product was limited to the functionality
specified in the claimed PPs. Any additional security related functional capabilities
included in the product were not covered by this evaluation.

4 Architectural Information
Note: The following architectural description is based on the description presented in the Security
Target.
The TOE is AppDetectivePRO v10.2 (also referred to as ADP). ADP is application software
executing on a Microsoft Windows 10 platform. ADP performs scanning of databases as
configured by authorized users. Authorized administrators configure the list of Windows users
that may use the ADP application. Authorized users then configure databases (assets) to be
scanned, associate policies applicable to each database, and review the results of the scans.
All interactions of administrators and users with the TOE is via a GUI provided by the ADP
application. The TOE performs automated scanning of the configured databases hosted on the
same Microsoft Windows 10 instance. The scanning functionality is referred to as the Scan
Engine. Configuration information is stored in a backend SQLite (v3.35.5) database. .NET is a
required component of the Operational Environment.
4.1 TOE Evaluated Platforms
The TOE was tested on a Windows 10 platform.
4.2 TOE Architecture
The TOE product consists of a Windows .exe application installed on a Windows 10 platform.
4.3 Physical Boundaries
The TOE is application software that resides entirely within the application space of a Microsoft
Windows 10 instance.
8
5 Security Policy
This section summaries the security functionality of the TOE:
1. Cryptographic support
2. User data protection
3. Security management
4. Privacy
5. Protection of the TSF
6. Trusted path/channels
5.1 Cryptographic Support
The TOE does not generate keys, use a DRBG or store credentials.
5.2 User Data Protection
The TOE ensures that all sensitive application data is encrypted and protected. The TOE does not
maintain sensitive information repositories and it restricts its access only to network
connectivity. The TOE restricts inbound and outbound network communications only to user-
initiated network communication for scanning configured databases.
5.3 Security Management
The TOE does not come with any default credentials. The user installing the TOE is
automatically configured as an authorized Administrator. Administrators may authorize
additional users to execute the ADP application. Authorized users may use the ADP application
to manage Assets and Policies and execute scans. Scan results may also be viewed.
5.4 Privacy
The TOE itself does not contain or transmit any PII.
5.5 Protection of the TSF
The TOE employs several mechanisms to ensure that it is secure on the host platform. Only
documented platform APIs are used by the TOE. The TOE never allocates memory with both
write and execute permission. Evaluated platform functionality is used to verify the TOE version
and perform updates.
5.6 Trusted Path/Channels
The TOE does not transmit sensitive data.
9
6 Documentation
The following documents were provided by the vendor with the TOE for evaluation:
• Trustwave AppDetectivePRO User Guide, Version 10.2, July 2021
Any additional customer documentation provided with the product, or that is available online
was not included in the scope of the evaluation and therefore should not be relied upon when
configuring or operating the device as evaluated.
To use the product in the evaluated configuration, the product must be configured as specified in
the Guidance Documentation listed above. Consumers are encouraged to download the
configuration guide from the NIAP website to ensure the device is configured as evaluated.
