4.6. Cryptographic Operations
The TOE performs cryptographic operations as shown in relevant Cryptographic
Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP) certificates.
5. Assumptions
The Security Problem Definition, including the assumptions, can be found in the
following documents:
• collaborative Protection Profile for Full Drive Encryption - Encryption Engine,
Version 2.0 + Errata 20190201, February 1, 2019
That information has not been reproduced here and CPP_FDE_EE_V2.0E should be
consulted if there is interest in that material.
6. Clarification of Scope
The scope of this evaluation was limited to the functionality and assurances covered in
CPP_FDE_EE_V2.0E as described for this TOE in the Security Target. Other
functionality included in the product was not assessed as part of this evaluation. All other
functionality provided by the devices needs to be assessed separately, and no further
conclusions can be drawn about their effectiveness.
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 in accordance with the assurance
UD info SSD Drives, Firmware Versions: SCPU13.0/ECPU13.0/SCQU15.0/ECQU15.0
Validation Report, Version 1.0

activities specified in the CPP_FDE_EE_V2.0E and performed by the Evaluation
team
• This evaluation covers only the specific software version identified in this
document, and not any earlier or later versions released or in process.
• This evaluation did not specifically search for, nor attempt to exploit,
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 functionality evaluated is scoped exclusively to the security functional
requirements specified in the CPP_FDE_EE_V2.0E and applicable Technical
Decisions. Any additional security related functional capabilities of the TOE
were not covered by this evaluation. In particular, as prescribed in sections 2.4.2
and 2.4.3 of the Security Target, the evaluation of the TOE does not include the
Authorization Acquisition component which is restricted to the environment nor
does it include configurations with multiple disks.

sufficient evidence and justification was provided by the Evaluation team to confirm
that the evaluation was conducted in accordance with the requirements of the CEM,
and that the conclusion reached by the Evaluation team was justified.
8.7. Summary of Evaluation Results
The Evaluation team's assessment of the evaluation evidence demonstrates that the
claims in the ST are met. Additionally, the evaluation team's test activities also
demonstrated the accuracy of the claims in the ST.
The Validation team's assessment of the evidence provided by the evaluation team is
that it demonstrates that the Evaluation team followed the procedures defined in the
CEM and performed the Assurance Activities in the CPP_FDE_EE_V2.0E and
correctly verified that the product meets the claims in the ST.

9. Validator Comments
The Validation team notes that the evaluated configuration is dependent upon the TOE
being configured per the evaluated configuration instructions in the documentation
referenced in Section 7 of this Validation Report. Consumers are encouraged to
download the configuration guide from the NIAP website to ensure the device is
configured as evaluated. 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.
The functionality evaluated is scoped exclusively to the security functional requirements
specified in the ST. Other functionality included in the product was not assessed as part
of this evaluation. Other functionality provided by devices in the operational
environment, needs to be assessed separately and no further conclusions can be drawn
about their effectiveness. No versions of the TOE and software, either earlier or later,
were evaluated.

12. GLOSSARY
• Common Criteria Testing Laboratory (CCTL): An IT security evaluation facility
accredited by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) and
approved by the CCEVS Validation Body to conduct Common Criteria-based
evaluations.
• Conformance. The ability to demonstrate in an unambiguous way that a given
implementation is correct with respect to the formal model.
• Evaluation: The assessment of an IT product against the Common Criteria using the
Common Criteria Evaluation Methodology to determine whether or not the claims
made are justified; or the assessment of a protection profile against the Common
Criteria using the Common Evaluation Methodology to determine if the Profile is
complete, consistent, technically sound and hence suitable for use as a statement of
requirements for one or more TOEs that may be evaluated.
• Evaluation Evidence: Any tangible resource (information) required from the sponsor
or developer by the evaluator to perform one or more evaluation activities.
• Feature. Part of a product that is either included with the product or can be ordered
separately.
• Target of Evaluation (TOE): A group of IT products configured as an IT system, or
an IT product, and associated documentation that is the subject of a security evaluation
under the CC.
• Threat: Means through which the ability or intent of a threat agent to adversely affect
the primary functionality of the TOE, facility that contains the TOE, or malicious
operation directed towards the TOE. A potential violation of security.
• Validation: The process carried out by the CCEVS Validation Body leading to the
issue of a Common Criteria certificate.
• Validation Body: A governmental organization responsible for carrying out validation
and for overseeing the day-to-day operation of the NIAP Common Criteria Evaluation
and Validation Scheme.
• Vulnerabilities: A vulnerability is a hardware, firmware, or software flaw that leaves
an Automated Information System (AIS) open for potential exploitation. A weakness
in automated system security procedures, administrative controls, physical layout,
internal controls, and so forth, which could be exploited by a threat to gain unauthorized
access to information or disrupt critical processing.
