TOE SUMMARY
The Target of Evaluation (TOE), the SSP01 secure subsystem, is a Hard macro instantiated within an
SOC which is composed of a processing unit, security components, hardware circuit for testing
purpose during the manufacturing process and volatile and non-volatile memories (hardware). The
TOE also includes any IC Designer/Manufacturer proprietary IC Dedicated Software as long as it
physically exists in an SSP01 after being delivered by the IC Manufacturer. Such software (also
known as IC bootloader/firmware) is used for providing additional services to facilitate the usage of
the hardware and/or to provide additional services, a random number generation library and a
random number generator. All other software is called Security IC Embedded Software and is not
part of the TOE. The Security IC Embedded Software is initially stored in encrypted form in external
NVM (Flash). The SoC S5E9830 is necessary to operate the SSP01 but it is not TOE hardware.
SECURITY ASSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
The product was evaluated with all the evidence required to fulfil the evaluation level EAL5 and the

SECURITY POLICIES
The use of the product Samsung SSP01 of S5E9830 with Specific IC Dedicated Software Revision 1.1
shall implement a set of security policies assuring the fulfilment of different standards and security
demands.
The detail of these policies is documented in [ST], chapter 3.3 (Organizational Security Policies).
ASSUMPTIONS AND OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT
The assumptions detailed in [ST], chapter 3.4 (Assumptions) are constraints to the conditions used
to assure the security properties and functionalities compiled by the security target. These
assumptions have been applied during the evaluation in order to determine if the identified
vulnerabilities can be exploited.
In order to assure the secure use of the TOE, it is necessary to start from these assumptions for its
operational environment. If this is not possible and any of them could not be assumed, it would not
be possible to assure the secure operation of the TOE.
CLARIFICATIONS ON NON-COVERED THREATS
The threats detailed in [ST], chapter 3.2 (Threats) do not suppose a risk for the product Samsung
SSP01 of S5E9830 with Specific IC Dedicated Software Revision 1.1, although the agents
implementing attacks have the attack potential according to the High of EAL5 + ALC_DVS.2 +
AVA_VAN.5 and always fulfilling the usage assumptions and the proper security policies
satisfaction.
For any other threat not included in this list, the evaluation results of the product security
properties and the associated certificate, do not guarantee any resistance.
OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT FUNCTIONALITY
The product requires the cooperation from its operational environment to fulfil some of the
objectives of the defined security problem.
The security objectives declared for the TOE operational environment are detailed in [ST], chapter
4.3 (Security Objectives for the Operational Enviroment).
The details of the product operational environment (assumptions, threats and organisational
security policies) and the TOE security requirements are included in the associated security target.

 Security sensors or detectors including High and Low Temperature detectors, High and Low
Supply Voltage detectors, Supply Voltage Glitch detector and Laser detector
 Active Shields against physical intrusive attacks
 Dedicated hardware mechanisms against side-channel attacks
 Secure TDES and AES Symmetric Cryptography support
 PARITY/ CRC-32 calculators
 One Hardware Digital True Random Number Generator (DTRNG) that fulfills Test Procedure
A specified by AIS31 standard.
 The IC Dedicated Software includes:
- DTRNG library built around Hardware DTRNG together with corresponding DTRNG
application notes. This library fulfills the criteria of Test Procedure A specified by
AIS31 standard.
- Secure Boot Loader is a loader for copying the embedded software from an external
FLASH storage into the internal SRAM.

PRODUCT TESTING
The developer has executed test for all the security functions. All the tests have been performed by
the developer in its premises, with a satisfactory result.
During the evaluation process it has been verified each unit test checking that the security
functionality that covers is been identified and also that the kind of test is appropriate to the
function that is intended to test.
All the tests have been developed using the testing scenario appropriate to the established
architecture in the security target. It has also been checked that the obtained results during the
tests fit or correspond to the previously estimated results.
To verify the results of the developer tests, the evaluator has applied sampling strategy and has
concluded that the information is complete and coherent enough to reproduce tests and identify
the functionality tested.
In addition, the lab has devised a test for each of the security function of the product verifying that
the obtained results are consistent with the results obtained by the developer.
It has been checked that the obtained results conform to the expected results and in the cases
where a deviation in respect to the expected results was present, the evaluator has confirmed that
this variation neither represents any security problem nor a decrease in the functional capacity of
the product.
PENETRATION TESTING
Based on the list of potential vulnerabilities applicable to the TOE in is operational environment
[JILAAPS], the evaluation team has devised vulnerability analysis and attack scenarios for
penetration testing according to JIL supporting documents [JILAAPS] and [JILADVARCS]. Within
these activities all aspects of the security architecture which were not covered by functional testing
have been considered.
No attack scenario with the attack potential high according to Common Criteria v3.1 R5 has been
successful in the TOE’s operational environment as defined in the security target when all security
measures required by the developer are applied.

RECOGNITION AGREEMENTS
In order to avoid multiple certification of the same product in different countries a mutual
recognition of IT security certificates - as far as such certificates are based on ITSEC or CC - under
certain conditions was agreed.
European Recognition of ITSEC/CC – Certificates (SOGIS-MRA)
The SOGIS-Mutual Recognition Agreement (SOGIS-MRA) Version 3 became effective in April 2010. It
defines the recognition of certificates for IT-Products at a basic recognition level and, in addition, at
higher recognition levels for IT-Products related to certain SOGIS Technical Domains only.
The basic recognition level includes Common Criteria (CC) Evaluation Assurance Levels EAL 1 to EAL
4 and ITSEC Evaluation Assurance Levels E1 to E3 (basic). For "Smartcards and similar devices" a
SOGIS Technical Domain is in place. For "HW Devices with Security Boxes" a SOGIS Technical
Domains is in place, too. In addition, certificates issued for Protection Profiles based on Common
Criteria are part of the recognition agreement.
The new agreement has been signed by the national bodies of Austria, Finland, France, Germany,
Italy, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom. The current list of
signatory nations and approved certification schemes, details on recognition, and the history of the
agreement can be seen on the website at https://www.sogis.eu.
The SOGIS-MRA logo printed on the certificate indicates that it is recognised under the terms of this
agreement by the nations listed above.
The certificate of this TOE is recognized under SOGIS-MRA for all assurance components selected.
International Recognition of CC – Certificates (CCRA)

Criteria Recognition Arrangement, CCRA-2014) has been ratified on 08 September 2014. It covers
CC certificates based on collaborative Protection Profiles (cPP) (exact use), CC certificates based on
assurance components up to and including EAL 2 or the assurance family Flaw Remediation
(ALC_FLR) and CC certificates for Protection Profiles and for collaborative Protection Profiles (cPP).
The CCRA-2014 replaces the old CCRA signed in May 2000 (CCRA-2000). Certificates based on CCRA-
2000, issued before 08 September 2014 are still under recognition according to the rules of CCRA-
2000. For on 08 September 2014 ongoing certification procedures and for Assurance Continuity
(maintenance and re-certification)of old certificates a transition period on the recognition of
certificates according to the rules of CCRA-2000 (i.e. assurance components up to and including EAL
4 or the assurance family Flaw Remediation (ALC_FLR)) is defined until 08 September 2017.
