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, TrustCB 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 TrustCB 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 TrustCB B.V. to
perform Common Criteria evaluations; a significant requirement for such a licence 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, TrustCB 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, 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 (CCRA) and the SOG-IS logos on the
certificate indicates that this certificate is issued in accordance with the provisions of the CCRA and
the SOG-IS Mutual Recognition Agreement (SOG-IS MRA) and will be recognised by the participating
nations.
International recognition
The CCRA was signed by the Netherlands in May 2000 and provides mutual recognition of certificates
based on the Common Criteria (CC). Since 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.
For details of the current list of signatory nations and approved certification schemes, see
http://www.commoncriteriaportal.org.
European recognition
The SOG-IS MRA Version 3, effective since April 2010, provides mutual recognition in Europe of
Common Criteria and ITSEC certificates at a basic evaluation level for all products. A higher
recognition level for evaluation levels beyond EAL4 (respectively E3-basic) is provided for products
related to specific technical domains. This agreement was signed initially by Finland, France,
Germany, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom. Italy joined the SOG-IS
MRA in December 2010.
For details of the current list of signatory nations, approved certification schemes and the list of
technical domains for which the higher recognition applies, see https://www.sogis.eu.

1 Executive Summary
This Certification Report states the outcome of the Common Criteria security evaluation of the IDentity
Applet v4.0/QSCD on NXP JCOP 4.5 P71. The developer of the IDentity Applet v4.0/QSCD on NXP
JCOP 4.5 P71 is ID&Trust Kft. located in Budapest, Hungary and NXP Semiconductors Germany
GmbH was the sponsor of the evaluation and certification. A Certification Report is intended to assist
prospective consumers when judging the suitability of the IT security properties of the product for their
particular requirements.
The TOE addressed by the current ST is a Qualified Signature Creation Device (QSCD) representing
a contact or contactless smart card which is able to generate signature creation data (SCD) and
create qualified electronic signatures. The TOE protects the SCD and ensures that only an authorized
signatory can use it.
The TOE has been evaluated by Keysight Technologies Netherlands Riscure B.V. located in Delft,
The Netherlands. The evaluation was completed on 13 February 2026 with the approval of the ETR.
The certification procedure has been conducted in accordance with the provisions of the Netherlands
Scheme for Certification in the Area of IT Security [NSCIB].
The scope of the evaluation is defined by the security target [ST], which identifies assumptions made
during the evaluation, the intended environment for the IDentity Applet v4.0/QSCD on NXP JCOP 4.5
P71, 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 IDentity Applet v4.0/QSCD
on NXP JCOP 4.5 P71 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 provide sufficient
evidence that the TOE meets the EAL5 augmented (EAL5+) assurance requirements for the evaluated
security functionality. This assurance level is augmented with ALC_DVS.2 (Sufficiency of security
measures) and AVA_VAN.5 (Advanced methodical vulnerability analysis).
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] (Parts I, II and III).
TrustCB B.V., as the NSCIB Certification Body, declares that the evaluation meets all the conditions
for international recognition of Common Criteria Certificates and that the product will be listed on the
NSCIB Certified Products list. Note that the certification results apply only to the specific version of the
product as evaluated.
The TOE is stated as a Qualified Signature Creation Device for the purposes of electronic
identification and trust services as detailed by the [EU-REG]. The evaluation by Keysight Technologies
Netherlands Riscure B.V. included an examination of the TOE according to the eIDAS Dutch
Conformity Assessment Process Version 7 0.
TrustCB B.V., as the Dutch eIDAS-Designated Body responsible in The Netherlands for the
assessment of the conformity of qualified electronic signature creation devices declares that the

For a detailed and precise description of the TOE lifecycle, see the [ST], Chapter 1.4.4.
2.2 Security Policy
The TOE is a Qualified Signature Creation Device (QSCD) representing a contact or contactless smart
card which is able to generate signature creation data (SCD) and create qualified electronic
signatures. The TOE protects the SCD and ensures that only an authorized signatory can use it.
The TOE support the following security features:
• it is uniquely linked to the signatory;
• it is capable of identifying the signatory;
• it is created using means that the signatory can maintain under his sole control;
• it is linked to the data to which it relates in such a manner that any subsequent change of the
data is detectable.
The TOE supports and implements cryptographic mechanisms that are compliant with Electronic
Signatures and Trust Infrastructures (ESI) Cryptographic Suites, ETSI TS 119 312 V1.5.1.
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. For detailed information on the
security objectives that must be fulfilled by the TOE environment, see section 4.2 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 architecture can be depicted as follows:
2.5 Documentation
The following documentation is provided with the product by the developer to the customer:
Identifier Version
ID&Trust, IDentity Applet Suite v4.0 Administrator's Guide, dated 08
December 2025
v4.0.9
ID&Trust, IDentity Applet Suite v4.0 Users’ Guide, 08 December 2025 v4.0.11
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 developer performed extensive testing on functional specification, subsystem and SFR-enforcing
module level. All parameter choices were addressed at least once. All boundary cases identified were
tested explicitly, and additionally the near-boundary conditions were covered probabilistically. The
testing was largely automated using industry standard and proprietary test suites. Test scripts were
used extensively to verify that the functions return the expected values.
The underlying hardware and crypto-library test results are extendable to composite evaluations,
because the underlying platform is operated according to its guidance and the composite evaluation
requirements are met.

For the testing performed by the evaluators, the developer provided samples and a test environment.
The evaluators reproduced a selection of the developer tests, as well as a small number of test cases
designed by the evaluator.
2.6.2 Independent penetration testing
The vulnerability analysis focused on the functionality implemented by the applet TOE, but considers
the entire composite TOE where needed. Any potential vulnerabilities that may arise from the usage of
the underlying platform are considered and assessed. The assessment is structured based on the
JHAS attack methods for smartcards and similar devices [JIL-AMS].
For each attack method, we describe how the attack method applies to the TOE. The following is
considered for each attack method:
• The design and implementation of the features relevant for the attack method
• Specific attack techniques from the evaluator’s attack repository
• Implemented countermeasures
• Observations from the platform evaluation
• Platform user guidance
Based on these items, the lab determined whether an attack method was applicable to the TOE and
should be tested during the penetration testing phase. During the assessment, the evaluator also
examined the results of the evaluation of the underlying platform, and confirmed that any obligations
or guidance from the platform have been correctly covered and followed.
The total test effort expended by the evaluators was 3 weeks. During that test campaign, 0% of the
total time was spent on Perturbation attacks, 0% was on physical attacks, 0% was on overcoming
sensors and filters, 67% was on perturbation attacks, 0% was on retrieving keys with FA, 0% was on
side-channel attacks, 0% was on exploitation of test features, 0% was on attacks on RNG, 0% was on
ill-formed Java Card applications, 33% was on software attacks, and 0% was on application isolation
penetration tests.
2.6.3 Test configuration
The TOE is only available in one security configuration, IDentity Applet v4.0/QSCD on NXP JCOP 4.5
P71.
2.6.4 Test 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.
The algorithmic security level of cryptographic functionality has not been rated in this certification
process, but the current consensus on the algorithmic security level in the open domain, i.e., from the
current best cryptanalytic attacks published, has been taken into account.
2.7 Reused Evaluation Results
There has been extensive reuse of the ALC aspects for the sites involved in the software component
of the TOE. Sites involved in the development and production of the hardware platform were reused
by composition.
2.8 Evaluated Configuration
The TOE is defined uniquely by its name and version number IDentity Applet v4.0/QSCD on NXP
JCOP 4.5 P71.

2.9 Evaluation Results
The evaluation lab documented their evaluation results in the [ETR], 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 IDentity Applet v4.0/QSCD on
NXP JCOP 4.5 P71, to be CC Part 2 extended, CC Part 3 conformant, and to meet the
requirements of EAL 5 augmented with ALC_DVS.2 and AVA_VAN.5 . This implies that the product
satisfies the security requirements specified in Security Target [ST].
The Security Target claims ’strict’ conformance to the Protection Profile [EN419211-2], [EN419211-4]
and [EN419211-5].
2.10 Comments/Recommendations
The user guidance as outlined in section 2.5 “Documentation” contains necessary information about
the usage of the TOE. Certain aspects of the TOE’s security functionality, in particular the
countermeasures against attacks, depend on accurate conformance to the user guidance of both the
software and the hardware part of the TOE. There are no particular obligations or recommendations
for the user apart from following the user guidance. Please note that the documents contain relevant
details concerning the resistance against certain attacks.
In addition, all aspects of assumptions, threats and policies as outlined in the Security Target not
covered by the TOE itself must 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. For the evolution of attack methods and techniques to be covered, the
customer should define the period of time until a re-assessment for the TOE is required and thus
requested from the sponsor of the certificate.
The strength of the cryptographic algorithms and protocols was not rated in the course of this
evaluation. This specifically applies to the following proprietary or non-standard algorithms, protocols
and implementations: <none>.
Not all key sizes specified in the [ST] have sufficient cryptographic strength to satisfy the AVA_VAN.5
“high attack potential”. To be protected against attackers with a "high attack potential", appropriate
cryptographic algorithms with sufficiently large cryptographic key sizes shall be used (references can
be found in national and international documents and standards).
