Foreword
The Netherlands Scheme for Certification in the Area of IT Security (NSCIB) provides a third-party
evaluation and certification service for determining the trustworthiness of Information Technology (IT)
security products. Under this NSCIB, TÜV Rheinland Nederland B.V. has the task of issuing
certificates for IT security products, as well as for protection profiles and sites.
Part of the procedure is the technical examination (evaluation) of the product, protection profile or site
according to the Common Criteria assessment guidelines published by the NSCIB. Evaluations are
performed by an IT Security Evaluation Facility (ITSEF) under the oversight of the NSCIB Certification
Body, which is operated by TÜV Rheinland Nederland B.V. in cooperation with the Ministry of the
Interior and Kingdom Relations.
An ITSEF in the Netherlands is a commercial facility that has been licensed by TÜV Rheinland
Nederland B.V. to perform Common Criteria evaluations; a significant requirement for such a license is
accreditation to the requirements of ISO Standard 17025 “General requirements for the accreditation
of calibration and testing laboratories”.
By awarding a Common Criteria certificate, TÜV Rheinland Nederland B.V. asserts that the product or
site complies with the security requirements specified in the associated (site) security target, or that
the protection profile (PP) complies with the requirements for PP evaluation specified in the Common
Criteria for Information Security Evaluation. A (site) security target is a requirements specification
document that defines the scope of the evaluation activities.
The consumer should review the (site) security target or protection profile, 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, its security requirements, and the level of confidence (i.e., the
evaluation assurance level) that the product or site satisfies the security requirements stated in the
(site) security target.

Recognition of the certificate
Presence of the Common Criteria Recognition Arrangement and SOG-IS logos on the certificate
indicates that this certificate is issued in accordance with the provisions of the CCRA and the SOG-IS
agreement and will be recognised by the participating nations
International recognition
The CCRA has been signed by the Netherlands in May 2000 and provides mutual recognition of
certificates based on the CC. Starting September 2014 the CCRA has been updated to provide mutual
recognition of certificates based on cPPs (exact use) or STs with evaluation assurance components
up to and including EAL2+ALC_FLR. The current list of signatory nations and approved certification
schemes can be found on: http://www.commoncriteriaportal.org.
European recognition
The European SOGIS-Mutual Recognition Agreement (SOGIS-MRA) version 3 effective from April
2010 provides mutual recognition of Common Criteria and ITSEC certificates at a basic evaluation
level for all products. A higher recognition level for evaluation levels beyond EAL4 (resp. E3-basic) is
provided for products related to specific technical domains. This agreement was initially signed by
Finland, France, Germany, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom. Italy
joined the SOGIS-MRA in December 2010. The current list of signatory nations, approved certification
schemes and the list of technical domains for which the higher recognition applies can be found on:
http://www.sogisportal.eu.eIDAS-Regulation
TÜV Rheinland Nederland BV, operating the Netherlands Scheme for Certification in the Area of IT
Security (NSCIB), has been notified as a Designated Certification Body from The Netherlands under
Article 30(2) and 39(2) of Regulation 910/2014 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE

The scope of the evaluation is defined by the security target [ST], which identifies assumptions made
during the evaluation, the intended environment for the NetIQ Access Manager 4.5, the security
requirements, and the level of confidence (evaluation assurance level) at which the product is
intended to satisfy the security requirements. Consumers of the NetIQ Access Manager 4.5 are
advised to verify that their own environment is consistent with the security target, and to give due
consideration to the comments, observations and recommendations in this certification report.
The results documented in the evaluation technical report [ETR]
1
for this product provides sufficient
evidence that the TOE meets the EAL3 augmented (EAL3+) assurance requirements for the evaluated
security functionality. This assurance level is augmented with ALC_FLR.1.2 (Basic Flaw Remediation).
The evaluation was conducted using the Common Methodology for Information Technology Security
Evaluation, Version 3.1 Revision 5 [CEM] for conformance to the Common Criteria for Information
Technology Security Evaluation, version 3.1 Revision 5 [CC].
TÜV Rheinland Nederland B.V., as the NSCIB Certification Body, declares that the evaluation meets

2 Certification Results
2.1 Identification of Target of Evaluation
The Target of Evaluation (TOE) for this evaluation is the NetIQ Access Manager 4.5 from NetIQ /
Micro Focus Corporation located in Houston Texas, USA.
The TOE is comprised of the following main components:
Delivery
item type
Identifier Version
Software NetIQ Access Manager 4.5.0.0.191
To ensure secure usage a set of guidance documents is provided together with the NetIQ Access
Manager 4.5. Details can be found in section “Documentation” of this report.
2.2 Security Policy
The TOE, NetIQ Access Manager 4.5 provides Single Sign-on (via SAML, OAuth/OIDC, Liberty, WS-
Fed) to the enterprise web application. The TOE provides authorized users with secure access to
intranet and cloud applications based on the context and information of who they are, where they are
located and what devices they are using and where they are located.
The TOE supports various types of authentication including multi-factor authentication and one can
configure a type authentication for a resource.
2.3 Assumptions and Clarification of Scope
2.3.1 Assumptions
The assumptions defined in the Security Target are not covered by the TOE itself. These aspects lead
to specific Security Objectives to be fulfilled by the TOE-Environment. Detailed information on these
security objectives that must be fulfilled by the TOE environment can be found in section 3.4 of the
[ST].
2.3.2 Clarification of scope
The evaluation did not reveal any threats to the TOE that are not countered by the evaluated security
functions of the product.
2.4 Architectural Information
The TOE includes of the following components:
• Administration Console Server: Allows you to configure and manage each component, and
allows you to centrally manage resources, such as policies, hardware, and certificates, which
are used by multiple components.
• Identity Server: Responsible for authenticating users and distributing role information to
facilitate authorization decisions.
• Access Gateway Service: Provides secure access to existing HTTP-based Web servers. It
provides the typical security services (authorization, single sign-on, and data encryption), and
is integrated with the identity and policy services of Access Manager.
The logical architecture of the TOE can be depicted as follows:

2.6 IT Product Testing
Testing (depth, coverage, functional tests, independent testing): The evaluators examined the
developer’s testing activities documentation and verified that the developer has met their testing
responsibilities.
2.6.1 Testing approach and depth
The test environment is based on the developer’s test plan. The test strategy took into account the
dependencies of the test cases of the developer and the evaluator chose to repeat all the test cases
as the test cases are related to each other which make it difficult to sample.
The evaluator have reproduced all of the developer tests, and additionally 10 test cases designed by
the evaluator.
2.6.2 Independent Penetration Testing
To identify potential vulnerabilities the evaluator performed the following activities:
• SFR design analysis: Based on the information obtained in the evaluation evidence, the SFR
implementation details were examined. The aspects described in CEM annex B were
considered. During this examination several potential vulnerabilities were identified.
• Additional security analysis: When the implementation of the SFR was understood, a
coverage check was performed on the relevant aspects of all SFRs. This expanded the list of
potential vulnerabilities.

• Public vulnerability search: The evaluator performed public domain vulnerability search based
on the TOE name, TOE type, and identified 3rd party security relevant libraries and/or
services. Several additional potential vulnerabilities were identified during a search in the
public domain.
• The potential vulnerabilities identified were analysed, and some of the potential vulnerabilities
were concluded not exploit within in the Basic attack potential, or covered by guidance. For
remaining potential vulnerabilities, penetration tests were devised.
The evaluator focused on the following for devising penetration tests:
• Remote accessible interfaces/protocols.
• Trying to misuse (including brute force) the Web GUI interface
• Performing generic web fuzzing
• Trying to disrupt audit record generations.
2.6.3 Test Configuration
The developer tested the TOE (version 4.5.0.0.191).
2.6.4 Testing Results
The testing activities, including configurations, procedures, test cases, expected results and observed
results are summarised in the [ETR], with references to the documents containing the full details.
The developer’s tests and the independent functional tests produced the expected results, giving
assurance that the TOE behaves as specified in its [ST] and functional specification.
No exploitable vulnerabilities were found with the independent penetration tests.
2.7 Evaluated Configuration
The TOE is defined uniquely by its name and version number NetIQ Access Manager 4.5.
2.8 Results of the Evaluation
The evaluation lab documented their evaluation results in the [ETR]
2
and which references an ASE
Intermediate Report and other evaluator documents.
The verdict of each claimed assurance requirement is “Pass”.
Based on the above evaluation results the evaluation lab concluded the NetIQ Access Manager 4.5, to
be CC Part 2 conformant, CC Part 3 conformant, and to meet the requirements of EAL 3
augmented with ALC_FLR.1. This implies that the product satisfies the security requirements
specified in Security Target [ST].
2.9 Comments/Recommendations
The user guidance as outlined in section 2.5 contains necessary information about the usage of the
TOE.
In addition all aspects of assumptions, threats and policies as outlined in the Security Target not
covered by the TOE itself need to be fulfilled by the operational environment of the TOE.
The customer or user of the product shall consider the results of the certification within his system risk
management process. In order for the evolution of attack methods and techniques to be covered, he
should define the period of time until a re-assessment for the TOE is required and thus requested from
the sponsor of the certificate.
