OVERVIEW
The Canadian Common Criteria Scheme provides a third-party evaluation service for determining the
trustworthiness of Information Technology (IT) security products. Evaluations are performed by a commercial
Common Criteria Evaluation Facility (CCEF) under the oversight of the Certification Body, which is managed by
the Communications Security Establishment.
A CCEF is a commercial facility that has been approved by the Certification Body to perform Common Criteria
evaluations; a significant requirement for such approval is accreditation to the requirements of ISO/IEC
17025:2005, the General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories.
By awarding a Common Criteria certificate, the Certification Body asserts that the product complies with the
security requirements specified in the associated security target. A security target is a requirements specification
document that defines the scope of the evaluation activities. The consumer of certified IT products should
review the security target, in addition to this certification report, in order to gain an understanding of any
assumptions made during the evaluation, the IT product's intended environment, the evaluated security
functionality, and the testing and analysis conducted by the CCEF.
The certification report, certificate of product evaluation and security target are posted to the Certified Products
list (CPL) for the Canadian CC Scheme and to the Common Criteria portal (the official website of the
International Common Criteria Project).

HPE Integrated Lights-Out 5 v1.11 (hereafter referred to as the Target of Evaluation, or TOE), from Hewlett
Packard Enterprise Development LP, was the subject of this Common Criteria evaluation. A description of the
TOE can be found in Section 1.2. The results of this evaluation demonstrate that TOE meets the requirements of
the conformance claim listed in Table 1 for the evaluated security functionality.
CGI IT Security Evaluation & Test Facility is the CCEF that conducted the evaluation. This evaluation was
completed 12 February 2018 and was carried out in accordance with the rules of the Canadian Common Criteria
Scheme.
The scope of the evaluation is defined by the security target, which identifies assumptions made during the
evaluation, the intended environment for TOE, and the security functional/assurance requirements. Consumers
are advised to verify that their operating environment is consistent with that specified in the security target, and
to give due consideration to the comments, observations and recommendations in this certification report.
Communications Security Establishment, as the Certification Body, declares that the TOE evaluation meets all
the conditions of the Arrangement on the Recognition of Common Criteria Certificates and that the product will

5 EVALUATION ANALYSIS ACTIVITIES
The evaluation analysis activities involved a structured evaluation of the TOE. Documentation and process
dealing with Development, Guidance Documents, and Life-Cycle Support were evaluated.
5.1 DEVELOPMENT
The evaluators analyzed the documentation provided by the vendor; they determined that the design
completely and accurately describes the TOE security functionality (TSF) interfaces and how the TSF implements
the security functional requirements (SFRs). The evaluators determined that the initialization process is secure,
that the security functions are protected against tamper and bypass, and that security domains are maintained.
5.2 GUIDANCE DOCUMENTS
The evaluators examined the TOE preparative user guidance and operational user guidance and determined that
it sufficiently and unambiguously describes how to securely transform the TOE into its evaluated configuration
and how to use and administer the product. The evaluators examined and tested the preparative and
operational guidance, and determined that they are complete and sufficiently detailed to result in a secure
configuration.
Section 4.1 provides details on the guidance documents.
5.3 LIFE-CYCLE SUPPORT
An analysis of the TOE configuration management system and associated documentation was performed. The
evaluators found that the TOE configuration items were clearly marked.
The evaluators examined the delivery documentation and determined that it described all of the procedures
required to maintain the integrity of the TOE during distribution to the consumer.

6 TESTING ACTIVITIES
Testing consists of the following three steps: assessing developer tests, performing independent functional tests,
and performing penetration tests.
6.1 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 ETR. The correspondence between the tests identified in
the developer’s test documentation and the functional specification was complete.
6.2 CONDUCT OF TESTING
The TOE was subjected to a comprehensive suite of formally documented, independent functional and
penetration tests. The detailed testing activities, including configurations, procedures, test cases, expected
results and observed results are documented in a separate Test Results document.
6.3 INDEPENDENT FUNCTIONAL TESTING
During this evaluation, the evaluator developed independent functional tests by examining design and guidance
documentation.
All testing was planned and documented to a sufficient level of detail to allow repeatability of the testing
procedures and results. The following testing activities were performed:
a. Repeat of Developer's Tests: The evaluator repeated a subset of the developers tests;
b. Banner and Authentication Delay: The objective of this test goal is to confirm that the TOE presents an
access banner, Kerberos authentication is enforced and a login delay is enforced between failed login
attempts on TOE interfaces;
c. Audit Trail Protection: The objective of this test goal is to confirm that access to the audit log is limited
to administrators with the appropriate privileges, the audit log is protected from unauthorized
modification and deletion and audit logs contain time stamps;
d. iLO CLI Identification and Authentication: The objective of this test goal is to confirm that local and
Kerberos authentication methods are enforced for the CLI, password length rules are enforced and only
administrators with proper privileges can create new user accounts;
e. iLO Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)/ ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) Interface: The
objective of this test goal is to confirm that local, Kerberos and LDAP authentication mechanisms are
enforced on the iLO UEFI/RBSU interfaces and that restrictions are enforced for the creation of new user
accounts;
f. TOE Connections: The objective of this test goal is confirm that communications with the iLO web GUI
and the LDAP sever are encrypted and secured using TLS;
g. Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Authentication and Authorization: The objective of this test goal is to
demonstrate successful and unsuccessful authentication using PIV cards. This test case will also confirm
that appropriate privileges are enforced by the TOE for the authenticated user;
UNCLASSIFIED
Version 1.0 8
h. iLO USB Service Port: The objective of this test goal is to confirm that the TOE will reject the usage of a
USB storage flash drive; and
i. Keyboard Controller Style Interface: The objective of this test is to confirm that the TOE can
appropriately process allowed and blocked commands to the TOE from the host OS.
6.3.1 FUNCTIONAL TEST RESULTS
The developer’s tests and the independent functional tests yielded the expected results, providing assurance
that the TOE behaves as specified in its ST and functional specification.
6.4 INDEPENDENT PENETRATION TESTING
Subsequent to the independent review of public domain vulnerability databases and all evaluation deliverables,
limited independent evaluator penetration testing was conducted. The penetration tests focused on:
a. Use of automated vulnerability scanning tools to discover potential network, platform and application
layer vulnerabilities such as Heartbleed, Shellshock, FREAK, POODLE, and GHOST; and
b. SNMP Queries: The objective of this test is to attempt to get the TOE to respond to SNMP queries.
6.4.1 PENETRATION TEST RESULTS
The independent penetration testing did not uncover any exploitable vulnerabilities in the intended operating
environment.
