1.5 TOE Architecture
1.5.1 Physical Boundaries
The TOE is a hardware and software solution that is comprised of the security appliance models
described above in Section 1.3. The TOE guidance documentation that is considered to be part of the
TOE can be found listed in the “FireEye Common Criteria Addendum” document and is posted with the
certificate and this Security Target.
The network on which the TOE resides is considered part of the environment. The software is pre-
installed and is comprised of only the software versions identified in Section 1.1. In addition, the
software images are also downloadable from the FireEye website. A login ID and password is required
to download the software image.
1.5.2 Logical Boundaries
The TOE provides the following security functions:
• Protected Communications. The TOE protects the integrity and confidentiality of
communications as follows:
o TLS connectivity with the following entities:
▪ External LDAP Server (with device level authentication)
▪ Audit Server (with device level authentication)
7
o SSH connectivity with the following entities:
▪ Management SSH Client
• Secure Administration. The TOE enables secure local and remote management of its security
functions, including:
o Local console CLI administration
o Remote CLI administration via SSHv2
o Administrator authentication using a local database, via LDAP over TLS
o Password complexity enforcement
o Role Based Access Control - the TOE supports several types of administrative user roles.
Collectively these sub-roles comprise the “Security Administrator”
o Configurable banners to be displayed at login
o Timeouts to terminate administrative sessions after a set period of inactivity
o Protection of secret keys and passwords
• Trusted Update. The TOE ensures the authenticity and integrity of software updates through
digital signatures and requires administrative intervention prior to the software updates being
installed.
• Security Audit. The TOE keeps local and remote audit records of security relevant events. The
TOE internally maintains the date and time which can either be set manually or synchronized
with an NTP server. The TOE is configured to transmit its audit messages to an external syslog
server. Communication with the syslog server is protected using TLS.
• Self-Test. The TOE performs a suite of self-tests to ensure the correct operation and
enforcement of its security functions.
• Cryptographic Operations. The TOE provides cryptographic support for the services described in
Table 4.

2.4 Conformance Rationale
This Security Target provides exact conformance to the Protection Profile described in the conformance
claims above. The security problem definition, security objectives and security requirements in this
Security Target are all taken from the applicable Protection Profile performing only operations defined
there.
11
3 Security Problem Definition
The security problem definition has been taken from [NDcPP] and is reproduced here for the
convenience of the reader.
3.1 Threats
The threats for the Network Device are grouped according to functional areas of the device in the
sections below.
3.1.1 Communications with the Network Device
A network device communicates with other network devices and other network entities. The endpoints
of this communication can be geographically and logically distant and may pass through a variety of
other systems. The intermediate systems may be untrusted providing an opportunity for unauthorized
communication with the network device or for authorized communication to be compromised. The
security functionality of the network device must be able to protect any critical network traffic
(administration traffic, authentication traffic, audit traffic, etc.). The communication with the network
device falls into two categories: authorized communication and unauthorized communication.
Authorized communication includes network traffic allowable by policy destined to and originating from
the network device as it was designed and intended. This includes critical network traffic, such as
network device administration and communication with an authentication or audit logging server, which
requires a secure channel to protect the communication. The security functionality of the network
device includes the capability to ensure that only authorized communications are allowed and the
capability to provide a secure channel for critical network traffic. Any other communication with the
network device is considered unauthorized communication. (Network traffic traversing the network
device but not ultimately destined for the device, e.g. packets that are being routed, are not considered
to be "communications with the network device" – cf. A.NO_THRU_TRAFFIC_PROTECTION in section
3.2.3.)
The primary threats to network device communications addressed in [the NDcPP] focus on an external,
unauthorized entity attempting to access, modify, or otherwise disclose the critical network traffic. A
poor choice of cryptographic algorithms or the use of non-standardized tunnelling protocols along with
weak Administrator credentials, such as an easily guessable password or use of a default password, will
allow a threat agent unauthorized access to the device. Weak or no cryptography provides little to no
protection of the traffic allowing a threat agent to read, manipulate and/or control the critical data with
little effort. Non-standardized tunnelling protocols not only limit the interoperability of the device but
lack the assurance and confidence standardization provides through peer review.
3.1.1.1 T.UNAUTHORIZED_ADMINISTRATOR_ACCESS
Threat agents may attempt to gain Administrator access to the network device by nefarious means such
as masquerading as an Administrator to the device, masquerading as the device to an Administrator,
replaying an administrative session (in its entirety, or selected portions), or performing man-in-the-
middle attacks, which would provide access to the administrative session, or sessions between network
devices. Successfully gaining Administrator access allows malicious actions that compromise the security
functionality of the device and the network on which it resides.
3.1.1.2 T.WEAK_CRYPTOGRAPHY
Threat agents may exploit weak cryptographic algorithms or perform a cryptographic exhaust against
the key space. Poorly chosen encryption algorithms, modes, and key sizes will allow attackers to
12
compromise the algorithms, or brute force exhaust the key space and give them unauthorized access
allowing them to read, manipulate and/or control the traffic with minimal effort.
3.1.1.3 T.UNTRUSTED_COMMUNICATION_CHANNELS
Threat agents may attempt to target network devices that do not use standardized secure tunnelling
protocols to protect the critical network traffic. Attackers may take advantage of poorly designed
protocols or poor key management to successfully perform man-in-the-middle attacks, replay attacks,
etc. Successful attacks will result in loss of confidentiality and integrity of the critical network traffic, and
potentially could lead to a compromise of the network device itself.
3.1.1.4 T.WEAK_AUTHENTICATION_ENDPOINTS
Threat agents may take advantage of secure protocols that use weak methods to authenticate the
endpoints – e.g. a shared password that is guessable or transported as plaintext. The consequences are
the same as a poorly designed protocol, the attacker could masquerade as the Administrator or another
device, and the attacker could insert themselves into the network stream and perform a man-in-the-
middle attack. The result is the critical network traffic is exposed and there could be a loss of
confidentiality and integrity, and potentially the network device itself could be compromised.
3.1.2 Valid Updates
Updating network device software and firmware is necessary to ensure that the security functionality of
the network device is maintained. The source and content of an update to be applied must be validated
by cryptographic means; otherwise, an invalid source can write their own firmware or software updates
that circumvents the security functionality of the network device. Methods of validating the source and
content of a software or firmware update by cryptographic means typically involve cryptographic
signature schemes where hashes of the updates are digitally signed.
Unpatched versions of software or firmware leave the network device susceptible to threat agents
attempting to circumvent the security functionality using known vulnerabilities. Nonvalidated updates
or updates validated using non-secure or weak cryptography leave the updated software or firmware
vulnerable to threat agents attempting to modify the software or firmware to their advantage.
3.1.2.1 T.UPDATE_COMPROMISE
Threat agents may attempt to provide a compromised update of the software or firmware which
undermines the security functionality of the device. Non-validated updates or updates validated using
non-secure or weak cryptography leave the update firmware vulnerable to surreptitious alteration.
3.1.3 Audited Activity
Auditing of network device activities is a valuable tool for Administrators to monitor the status of the
device. It provides the means for Administrator accountability, security functionality activity reporting,
reconstruction of events, and problem analysis. Processing performed in response to device activities
may give indications of a failure or compromise of the security functionality. When indications of activity
that impact the security functionality are not generated and monitored, it is possible for such activities
to occur without Administrator awareness. Further, if records are not generated and retained,
reconstruction of the network and the ability to understand the extent of any compromise could be
negatively affected.
Additional concerns are the protection of the audit data that is recorded from alteration or
unauthorized deletion. This could occur within the TOE, or while the audit data is in transit to an
external storage device.
Note [the NDcPP] requires that the network device generate the audit data and have the capability to
13
send the audit data to a trusted network entity (e.g., a syslog server).
3.1.3.1 T.UNDETECTED_ACTIVITY
Threat agents may attempt to access, change, and/or modify the security functionality of the network
device without Administrator awareness. This could result in the attacker finding an avenue (e.g.,
misconfiguration, flaw in the product) to compromise the device and the Administrator would have no
knowledge that the device has been compromised.
3.1.4 Administrator and Device Credentials Data
A network device contains data and credentials which must be securely stored and must appropriately
restrict access to authorized entities. Examples include the device firmware, software, configuration
authentication credentials for secure channels, and Administrator credentials. Device and Administrator
keys, key material, and authentication credentials need to be protected from unauthorized disclosure
and modification. Furthermore, the security functionality of the device needs to require default
authentication credentials, such as Administrator passwords, be changed.
Lack of secure storage and improper handling of credentials and data, such as unencrypted credentials
inside configuration files or access to secure channel session keys, can allow an attacker to not only gain
access to the network device, but also compromise the security of the network through seemingly
authorized modifications to configuration or though man-in-the middle attacks. These attacks allow an
unauthorized entity to gain access and perform administrative functions using the Security
Administrator’s credentials and to intercept all traffic as an authorized endpoint. This results in difficulty
in detection of security compromise and in reconstruction of the network, potentially allowing
continued unauthorized access to Administrator and device data.
3.1.4.1 T.SECURITY_FUNCTIONALITY_COMPROMISE
Threat agents may compromise credentials and device data enabling continued access to the network
device and its critical data. The compromise of credentials includes replacing existing credentials with an
attacker’s credentials, modifying existing credentials, or obtaining the Administrator or device
credentials for use by the attacker.
3.1.4.2 T.PASSWORD_CRACKING
Threat agents may be able to take advantage of weak administrative passwords to gain privileged access
to the device. Having privileged access to the device provides the attacker unfettered access to the
network traffic, and may allow them to take advantage of any trust relationships with other network
devices.
3.1.5 Device Failure
Security mechanisms of the network device generally build up from roots of trust to more complex sets
of mechanisms. Failures could result in a compromise to the security functionality of the device. A
network device self-testing its security critical components at both start-up and during run-time ensures
the reliability of the device’s security functionality.
3.1.5.1 T.SECURITY_FUNCTIONALITY_FAILURE
A component of the network device may fail during start-up or during operations causing a compromise
or failure in the security functionality of the network device, leaving the device susceptible to attackers.
14
3.2 Assumptions
This section describes the assumptions made in identification of the threats and security requirements
for network devices. The network device is not expected to provide assurance in any of these areas, and
as a result, requirements are not included to mitigate the threats associated.
3.2.1 A.PHYSICAL_PROTECTION
The network device is assumed to be physically protected in its operational environment and not subject
to physical attacks that compromise the security and/or interfere with the device’s physical
interconnections and correct operation. This protection is assumed to be sufficient to protect the device
and the data it contains. As a result, the [NDcPP] will not include any requirements on physical tamper
protection or other physical attack mitigations. The [NDcPP] will not expect the product to defend
against physical access to the device that allows unauthorized entities to extract data, bypass other
controls, or otherwise manipulate the device.
3.2.2 A.LIMITED_FUNCTIONALITY
The device is assumed to provide networking functionality as its core function and not provide
functionality/services that could be deemed as general purpose computing. For example, the device
should not provide a computing platform for general purpose applications (unrelated to networking
functionality).
3.2.3 A.NO_THRU_TRAFFIC_PROTECTION
A standard/generic network device does not provide any assurance regarding the protection of traffic
that traverses it. The intent is for the network device to protect data that originates on or is destined to
the device itself, to include administrative data and audit data. Traffic that is traversing the network
device, destined for another network entity, is not covered by the NDcPP. It is assumed that this
protection will be covered by cPPs for particular types of network devices (e.g., firewall).
3.2.4 A.TRUSTED_ADMINISTRATOR
The Security Administrator(s) for the network device are assumed to be trusted and to act in the best
interest of security for the organization. This includes being appropriately trained, following policy, and
adhering to guidance documentation. Administrators are trusted to ensure passwords/credentials have
sufficient strength and entropy and to lack malicious intent when administering the device. The network
device is not expected to be capable of defending against a malicious Administrator that actively works
to bypass or compromise the security of the device.
3.2.5 A.REGULAR_UPDATES
The network device firmware and software is assumed to be updated by an Administrator on a regular
basis in response to the release of product updates due to known vulnerabilities.
3.2.6 A.ADMIN_CREDENTIALS_SECURE
The Administrator’s credentials (private key) used to access the network device are protected by the
platform on which they reside.
3.3 Organizational Security Policy
An organizational security policy is a set of rules, practices, and procedures imposed by an organization
to address its security needs. The description of each policy is described in the section below.
15
3.3.1 P.ACCESS_BANNER
The TOE shall display an initial banner describing restrictions of use, legal agreements, or any other
appropriate information to which users consent by accessing the TOE.
16
4 Security Objectives
The security objectives have been taken from [NDcPP] and are reproduced here for the convenience of
the reader.
4.1 Security Objectives for the Operational Environment
The following subsections describe objectives for the Operational Environment.
4.1.1 OE.PHYSICAL
Physical security, commensurate with the value of the TOE and the data it contains, is provided by the
environment.
4.1.2 OE.NO_GENERAL_PURPOSE
There are no general-purpose computing capabilities (e.g., compilers or user applications) available on
the TOE, other than those services necessary for the operation, administration and support of the TOE.
4.1.3 OE.NO_THRU_TRAFFIC_PROTECTION
The TOE does not provide any protection of traffic that traverses it. It is assumed that protection of this
traffic will be covered by other security and assurance measures in the operational environment.
4.1.4 OE.TRUSTED_ADMIN
Security Administrators are trusted to follow and apply all guidance documentation in a trusted manner.
4.1.5 OE.UPDATES
The TOE firmware and software is updated by an Administrator on a regular basis in response to the
release of product updates due to known vulnerabilities.
4.1.6 OE.ADMIN_CREDENTIALS_SECURE
The Administrator’s credentials (private key) used to access the TOE must be protected on any other
platform on which they reside.
17
5 Security Requirements
This section identifies the Security Functional Requirements for the TOE and/or Platform. The Security
Functional Requirements included in this section are derived from the CC Part 2 and all applicable
Protection Profiles as described in section 2.
5.1 Conventions
The CC defines operations on Security Functional Requirements: assignments, selections, assignments
within selections and refinements. This document uses the following font conventions to identify the
operations defined by the CC:
• Assignment: Indicated with italicized text;
• Refinement made by PP author: Indicated with bold text and strikethroughs, if necessary;
• Selection: Indicated with underlined text;
• Assignment within a Selection: Indicated with italicized and underlined text;
• Iteration: Indicated by appending the iteration number in parenthesis, e.g., (1), (2), (3);
• Where operations were completed in the PP itself, the formatting used in the PP has been
retained.

5.5 Rationale for Security Assurance Requirements
The functional specification describes the external interfaces of the TOE; such as the means for a user to
invoke a service and the corresponding response of those services. The description includes the
interface(s) that enforces a security functional requirement, the interface(s) that supports the
enforcement of a security functional requirement, and the interface(s) that does not enforce any
security functional requirements. The interfaces are described in terms of their purpose (general goal of
the interface), method of use (how the interface is to be used), parameters (explicit inputs to and
outputs from an interface that control the behavior of that interface), parameter descriptions (tells what
the parameter is in some meaningful way), and error messages (identifies the condition that generated
it, what the message is, and the meaning of any error codes). The development evidence also contains a
tracing of the interfaces to the SFRs described in this ST.

6 TOE Summary Specification
This chapter identifies and describes how the Security Functional Requirements identified above are met
by the TOE.
TOE SFR Rationale
FAU_GEN.1 The TOE generates a comprehensive set of audit logs that identify specific TOE
operations whenever an auditable event occurs. Auditable events are specified
at Table 6. Each of the events is specified in the audit record is in enough detail
to identify the user for which the event is associated, when the event occurred,
where the event occurred, the outcome of the event, and the type of event that
occurred.
The audit trail consists of the individual audit records; one audit record for each
event that occurred. As noted above, the information includes [at least] all of
the required information. The log buffer is circular, so newer messages overwrite
older messages after the buffer is full. Administrators are instructed to monitor
the log buffer to view the audit records. The first message displayed is the oldest
message in the buffer.
The TOE does not have an interface to modify audit records, though there is an
interface available for the authorized administrator to clear audit data stored
locally on the TOE.
FAU_GEN.2 The TOE ensures that each auditable event is associated with the user that
triggered the event. For example, a human user, user identity or related session
ID would be included in the audit record. For an IT entity or device, the IP
address, MAC address, host name, or other configured identification is included
in the audit record.
FAU_STG_EXT.1 The TOE may be configured to export syslog records to a specified, external
syslog server. The TOE also stores a limited set of audit records locally on the
TOE, and continues to do so if the communication with the syslog server goes
down.
The TOE protects communications with an external syslog server via TLS. The
TOE transmits its audit events to all configured syslog servers at the same time
logs are written locally to non-volatile storage.
If the TLS connection fails, the TOE continues to store audit records locally on the
TOE, and will transmit any locally stored contents when connectivity to the syslog
server is restored.
Only Authorized Administrators are able to clear the local logs, and local audit
records are stored in a directory that does not allow administrators to modify the
contents.
The amount of audit data that can be stored locally is configurable by setting the
local log rotation parameters (e.g. see the logging files rotation CLI
commands). When the local log is full, the oldest log files are deleted to allow a
new log to be created.
FCS_CKM.1 In support of secure cryptographic protocols, the TOE supports RSA key
generation schemes as specified in NIST SP-800-186-4, with key sizes of 2048 and
3072 bits. These keys are used in support of digital certificates for both TLS and
SSH.
31
Additionally, the TOE supports Elliptic Curve key generation of p-256. The keys
are used in support of ECDH key exchange as part of TLS.
The relevant NIST CAVP certificate numbers are listed in Table 5.
FCS_CKM.2 In support of secure cryptographic protocols, the TOE supports several key
establishment schemes, including,
• RSA based key exchange based on NIST SP 800-56Br1;
• ECC based key exchange based on NIST SP 800-56Ar2
• FFC based key exchange based on NIST SP 800-56Ar2
RSA, ECC, and FFC schemes are used for TLS. The TSF claims Diffie Hellman group
14 for SSH key exchange which is implemented by hardcoding Oakley Group 14
parameters as defined in RFC3526, section 3.
The TOE acts as a sender and receiver for all schemes.
The relevant NIST CAVP certificate numbers are listed in Table 5. The vendor
claims NIST SP 800-56B conformance via vendor affirmation.
FCS_CKM.4 The TOE meets all requirements specified in NDcPP for destruction of keys and
Critical Security Parameters (CSPs). All keys within the TOE are securely
destroyed as per the descriptions given in Table 10 below.
FCS_COP.1(1) The TOE provides symmetric encryption and decryption capabilities using 128
and 256 bit AES in CBC mode and GCM mode as described in NIST SP 800-38A
and NIST SP 800-38D, respectively. AES is implemented in the following
protocols: TLS and SSH.
The relevant NIST CAVP certificate numbers are listed in Table 5.
FCS_COP.1(2) The TOE provides cryptographic signature generation and verification services
using
• RSA Signature Algorithm with key size of 2048 and greater,
• ECDSA Signature Algorithm with NIST curves P-256, P-384 and P-521.
These RSA and ECDSA signature verification services are used in the TLS
protocols. Additionally, RSA signature verification is used for the SSH protocol
(ssh-rsa).
The relevant NIST CAVP certificate numbers are listed in Table 5
FCS_COP.1(3) The TOE provides cryptographic hashing services using SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384,
and SHA-512 as specified in FIPS Pub 180-4 “Secure Hash Standard.”
SHS is implemented in the following parts of the TSF:
• TLS and SSH;
• Digital signature verification as part of trusted update validation; and
• Hashing of passwords in non-volatile storage.
The relevant NIST CAVP certificate numbers are listed in Table 5.
FCS_COP.1(4) The TOE provides keyed-hashing message authentication services using HMAC-
SHA-1, HMAC-SHA-256, HMAC-SHA-384, and HMAC-SHA-512 as specified in FIPS
Pub 198-1, "The Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code,” and FIPS 180-4,
“Secure Hash Standard.”
32
HMAC is implemented in the following protocols: TLS and SSH.
The characteristics of the HMACs used in the TOE are given in the following table:
Algorithm Hash function Block size Key size Digest size
HMAC-SHA-1 SHA-1 512 bits 512 bits 160 bits
HMAC-SHA-256 SHA-256 512 bits 512 bits 256 bits
HMAC-SHA-384 SHA-384 1024 bits 1024 bits 384 bits
HMAC-SHA-512 SHA-512 1024 bits 1024 bits 512 bits
The relevant NIST CAVP certificate numbers are listed in Table 5
FCS_RBG_EXT.1 The TOE implements a NIST-approved AES-CTR Deterministic Random Bit
Generator (DRBG), as specified in SP 800-90.
The entropy source used to seed the Deterministic Random Bit Generator is a
random set of bits regularly supplied to the DRBG from three software sources.
(This ST considers the sources ‘software’ simply because the entropy sources are
not considered True Random Number Generators (TRNGs) based on random
properties of physical processes.) The combined 256-bit seed value contains 256
bits of independent and identically distributed (IID) entropy.
All RNG entropy source samplings are continuously health tested by the NIST
DRBG as per SP 900-90A before using them as a seed.
The relevant NIST CAVP certificate numbers are listed in Table 5.
FCS_SSHS_EXT.1 The TOE uses SSH in a server capacity to remotely manage by an administrator-
controlled (out-of-scope) SSH client.
The SSH server is capable of using both RSA public keys (ssh-rsa) and passwords
for client authentication to the remote server. Public keys can be associated to
named administrative users.
Large SSH packets are defined as those greater than 65,535 bytes. This is
accomplished by buffering all data for a particular SSH packet transmission until
the buffer limit is reached and then dropping the packet if this limit is exceeded.
The TOE supports the following cryptographic algorithms:
• AES-CBC-128, AES-CBC-256, AEAD_AES_128_GCM, and
AEAD_AES_256_GCM to ensure confidentiality of the session;
• HMAC-SHA1, HMAC-SHA2-256, HMAC-SHA2-512, AEAD_AES_128_GCM
and AEAD_AES_256_GCM;
Keys are exchanged between the client and server using diffie-hellman-group14-
sha1.
The TOE SSH server is capable of rekeying. The TOE implements two thresholds:
• When 1 GB of aggregate data is transferred between the client-server
pair (irrespective of direction of data flow); and
• When 1 hour has elapsed.
The TOE continuously checks both conditions. When either of the conditions are
met, the TOE will initiate a rekey. All session keys are rekeyed at the same time
33
(eg. confidentiality and integrity keys).
The TOE server maintains an SSH server hostkey fingerprint which can be used by
an SSH client to detect server authenticity.
FCS_TLSC_EXT.1 The TOE has two trusted channels which make use of TLS:
• LDAP; and
• Syslog.
Both the LDAP and the syslog channel clients allow TLS protocol versions 1.1 and
1.2 and are both restricted to the following ciphersuites by default:
• TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
• TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA
• TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
• TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA
• TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256
• TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_ SHA256
• TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_ SHA256
• TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_ SHA256
• TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256
• TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384
• TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
• TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
• TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
• TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
• TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256
• TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384
Ciphersuites are not user-configurable.
The reference identifier for both the external LDAP server and syslog server
are configured by the administrator using the available administrative
commands in the CLI or the web GUI.
When either the LDAP client or syslog client receives an X.509 certificate
from their respective servers, the client will compare the reference identifier
with the established Subject Alternative Names (SANs) in the certificate. If a
SAN is available and does not match the reference identifier, then the
verification fails and the channel is terminated. If there are no SANs of the
correct type in the certificate, then the TSF will compare the reference
identifier to the Common Name (CN) in the certificate Subject. If there is no
CN, then the verification fails and the channel is terminated. If the CN exists
and does not match, then the verification fails and the channel is
terminated. Otherwise, the reference identifier verification passes and
additional verification actions can proceed.
Neither the LDAP nor syslog TLS clients support certificate pinning.
Both LDAP and syslog TLS clients will transmit the Supported Elliptic Curves
extension in the Client Hello message by default with support for the
following NIST curves: secp256r1. The non-TOE server can choose to
negotiate the elliptic curve from this set for any of the mutually negotiable
elliptic curve ciphersuites.
34
FIA_PMG_EXT.1 The TOE supports the local definition of users with corresponding passwords. The
passwords can be composed of any combination of upper and lower case letters,
numbers, and special characters (that include: “!”, “@”, “#”, “$”, “%”, “^”, “&”,
“*”, “(“, “)”, “’”, “+”, “-“, “.”, “/”, “:”, “;”, “<”, “=”, “>”, “?”, “[“, “\”, “]”, “^”, “_”,
“`”, “{“, “|”, “}”, and “~”. The minimum password length is settable by the
Authorized Administrator and can range from 8 to 32 characters.
FIA_UIA_EXT.1
FIA_UAU_EXT.2
The TOE requires all users to be successfully identified and authenticated before
allowing any TSF mediated actions to be performed. Administrative access to the
TOE is facilitated through one of several interfaces,
• Directly connecting to each TOE appliance
• Remotely connecting to each appliance via SSHv2
Regardless of the interface at which the administrator interacts, the TOE prompts
the user for a credential. Only after the administrative user presents the correct
authentication credentials will they be granted access to the TOE administrative
functionality. No TOE administrative access is permitted until an administrator is
successfully identified and authenticated.
The TOE provides a local password based authentication mechanism as well as
LDAP authentication, if configured.
The process for authentication is the same for administrative access whether
administration is occurring via direct connection or remotely. For mechanisms
other than X.509 mutual authentication to the remote web GUI, at initial login,
the administrative user is prompted to provide a username. After the user
provides the username, the user is prompted to provide the administrative
credential associated with the user account (eg. password or SSH public/private
key response). The TOE then either grants administrative access (if the
combination of username and credential is correct) or indicates that the login
was unsuccessful. The TOE does not provide a reason for failure in the cases of a
login failure.
For X.509-based client authentication to the web GUI, the non-TOE web client
(the ‘web browser’) is responsible for acquiring the X.509 certificate from the
user and transmitting it to the TOE via the TLS client Certificate protocol
message. The TOE will validate the client certificate according to the rules for
FIA_X509_EXT.1 and ensure the encoded subject is associated with an
administrative account on the TOE. If the X.509 certificate fails to validate or the
subject is not associated with a permitted administrative account, the TOE will
reject the X.509 credential.
The TOE does not permit any administrative function to be accessible until after
an administrator is successfully identified and authenticated.
FIA_UAU.7 For all authentication at the local CLI the TOE displays only "*" characters when
the administrative password is entered so that the password is obscured.
FIA_X509_EXT.1
FIA_X509_EXT.2
FIA_X509_EXT.3
The TOE performs X.509 certificate validation at the following three points:
• TOE TLS client authentication of server X.509 certificates;
In all three scenarios, certificates are checked for several validation
35
characteristics:
• If the certificate ‘notAfter’ date is in the past, then this is an expired
certificate which is considered invalid;
• The certificate chain must terminate with a trusted CA certificate;
• Server certificates consumed by the TOE TLS client must have a
‘serverAuthentication’ extendedKeyUsage purpose;
• Client certificates consumed by the TOE TLS server (for mutual
authentication) must have a ‘clientAuthentication’ extendedKeyUsage
purpose;
A trusted CA certificate is defined as any certificate loaded into the TOE trust
store that has, at a minimum, a basicConstraints extension with the CA flag set to
TRUE.
Certificate revocation checking is performed using Certificate Revocation Lists.
The CRL must have the cRLsigning bit set.
The TOE has a trust store where root CA and intermediate CA certificates can be
stored. The trust store is not cached: if a certificate is deleted, it is immediately
untrusted. If a certificate is added to the trust store, it is immediately trusted for
its given scope.
The X.509 certificates for each of the given scenarios are validated using the
certificate path validation algorithm defined in RFC 5280, which can be
summarized as follows:
• The public key algorithm and parameters are checked
• The current date/time is checked against the validity period revocation
status is checked
• Issuer name of X matches the subject name of X+1
• Name constraints are checked
• Policy OIDs are checked
• Policy constraints are checked; issuers are ensured to have CA signing
bits
• Path length is checked
• Critical extensions are processed
If, during the entire trust chain verification activity, any certificate under review
fails a verification check, then the entire trust chain is deemed untrusted and the
TLS connection is terminated.
As part of the verification process, Certificate Revocation Lists are used to
determine whether the certificate is revoked or not.
Instructions for configuring the trusted IT entities to supply appropriate X.509
certificates are captured in the guidance documents.
The TOE is capable of generating certificate signing requests (CSRs). The user can
select the size of the key as 2048 or 3072 bits. In addition to adding the public
key to the certificate details, the user can provide information for the Common
Name, Organization, Organizational Unit, Locality, State/Province, Country, and
Email Address. No device-specific details are collected and added to the
certificate request to be signed.
36
FMT_MOF.1(1)/
TrustedUpdate
The TOE restricts the ability to perform software updates to the Admin role.
FMT_MTD.1
FMT_SMR.2
The TOE implements role based access control. Administrative users are required
to login before being provided with access to any administrative functions. The
TOE supports several types of administrative user roles. Collectively these sub-
roles comprise the Security Administrator. The supported roles include,
• Admin: The system administrator is a “super user” who has all
capabilities. The primary function of this role is to configure the system.
• Monitor: The system monitor has read-only access to some things the
admin role can change or configure.
• Operator: The system operator has a subset of the capabilities
associated with the admin role. Its primary function is configuring and
monitoring the system
• Analyst: The system analyst focuses on data plane analysis and
possesses several capabilities, including setting up alerts and reports.
• Auditor: The system auditor reviews audit logs and performs forensic
analysis to trace how events occurred.
Each of the predefined administrative sub-roles have a set of permissions that
will grant them access to the TOE data, though with some sub-roles, the access is
limited.
The TOE performs role-based authorization, using TOE platform authorization
mechanisms, to grant access to the privileged and semi-privileged levels.
The term “Security Administrator” is used in this ST to refer to any user which
has been assigned a sub-role that is permitted to perform the relevant action;
therefore has the appropriate privileges to perform the requested functions.
FMT_SMF.1 The TOE may be managed via the CLI (console & SSH).
The specific management capabilities include:
• Ability to administer the TOE locally and remotely ;
• Ability to configure the access banner;
• Ability to configure the session inactivity time before session
termination or locking;
• Ability to update the TOE, and to verify the updates using digital
signature capability prior to installing those updates;
• Ability to configure the cryptographic functionality.
FPT_SKP_EXT.1 The TOE stores all private keys in a secure directory that is not readily accessible
to administrators; hence no interface access. Refer to section 6.1 for key storage
details.
FPT_APW_EXT.1 The TOE stores Security Administrator passwords. All passwords are stored in a
secure directory that is not readily accessible to administrators. The passwords
are stored SHA-512 hashed and not in plaintext. There are no administrative
interfaces available that allow passwords to be viewed.
FPT_TST_EXT.1 The TOE runs a suite of self-tests during initial start-up to verify its correct
operation. If any of the tests fail, the TOE will enter into an error state until an
Administrator intervenes.
37
During the system bootup process (power on or reboot), all the Power on Startup
Test (POST) components for all the cryptographic modules perform the POST.
Refer to the FIPS Security Policy for available options and management of the
cryptographic self-test.
The Software Integrity Test is run automatically on start-up, and whenever the
system images are loaded. A hash verification is used to confirm the image file to
be loaded has not been corrupted and has maintained its integrity. These tests
are sufficient to verify that the correct version of the TOE software is running as
well as that the cryptographic operations are all performing as expected. Both of
these functions are required to ensure that the TOE is operating as expected and
data that the user expects to be encrypted in not transferred in plaintext.
FPT_TUD_EXT.1 The Security Administrator can query the software version running on the TOE
and the most recently downloaded software version. When software updates are
made available by FireEye the Security Administrator can obtain, verify the
integrity of, and install those updates. Software updates are downloaded to the
TOE via an fenet image fetch command on the CLI or by navigating to the
Update page in the web GUI. Software images will not be installed without
explicit administrative intervention. The TOE image files are digitally signed
(2048-bit RSA/SHA-256) so their integrity can be verified during the upgrade
process. An image that fails an integrity check will not be loaded.
FPT_STM.1 The TOE provides a source of date and time information used in audit event
timestamps. The clock function is reliant on the system clock provided by the
underlying hardware. The TOE can optionally be set to receive clock updates
from an NTP server. This date and time is used as the time stamp that is applied
to TOE generated audit records and used to track inactivity of administrative
sessions.
FTA_SSL_EXT.1
FTA_SSL.3
A Security Administrator can configure maximum inactivity times for
administrative sessions through the TOE GUI and CLI interfaces. The
configuration of inactivity periods are applied on a per interface basis. A
configured inactivity period will be applied to both local and remote sessions in
the same manner. When the interface has been idle for more than the
configured period of time, the session will be terminated and will require
authentication to establish a new session.
FTA_SSL.4 A Security Administrator is able to exit out of both local and remote
administrative sessions.
FTA_TAB.1 Security Administrators can define a custom login banner that will be displayed
at the following interfaces,
• Local CLI
• Remote CLI
• Remote GUI
This banner will be displayed prior to allowing Security Administrator access
through those interfaces.
FTP_ITC.1 The TOE supports communications with several types of authorized IT entities,
including,
• Audit Servers
• LDAP Servers
Each of these connections are protected via a TLS connection. This protects the
data from disclosure by encryption using AES and by HMACs that verify that data
has not been modified.
38
TLS provides assured identification of the non-TSF endpoint by validating X.509
certificates. The TOE retains a trusted store of certificate authorities which it
uses to verify digital signatures on those non-TSF certificates.
The TOE is responsible for initiating the trusted channel with the external trusted
IT entities.
FTP_TRP.1 All remote administrative communications take place over a secure encrypted
session. Remote CLI connections take place over an SSHv2 tunnel. The SSHv2
session is encrypted using AES encryption to protect confidentiality and uses
HMACs to protect integrity of traffic. Remote GUI connections take place over a
TLS connection. The TLS session is encrypted using AES encryption and uses
HMACs to protect integrity.
The remote administrators can initiate both SSHv2 and TLS communications with
the TOE.
