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 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, 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, 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 The 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.

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 independent vulnerability analysis performed was conducted along the following steps: • When evaluating the evidence in the classes ASE, ADV and AGD the evaluator considered whether potential vulnerabilities could already be identified due to the TOE type and/or specified behaviour in such an early stage of the evaluation. • For ADV_IMP a thorough implementation representation review was performed on the TOE. During this attack-oriented analysis the protection of the TOE was analysed using the knowledge gained from all evaluation classes. This resulted in the identification of (additional) potential vulnerabilities. This analysis used the attack methods in [JIL-AM] and [JIL-AAPS]. • All potential vulnerabilities were analysed using the knowledge gained from all evaluation classes and information from the public domain. A judgment was made on how to assure that Page: 9/13 of report number: NSCIB-CC-0583946-CR, dated 2 June 2023 ® TÜV, TUEV and TUV are registered trademarks. Any use or application requires prior approval. these potential vulnerabilities are not exploitable. The potential vulnerabilities were addressed by penetration testing, a guidance update or in other ways that are deemed appropriate. The total test effort expended by the evaluators was 117 days. During that test campaign, 60% of the total time was spent on Perturbation attacks, 28% on side-channel testing, and 12% on logical tests. 2.6.3 Test configuration The evaluator used special applets for the logical tests of the JCVM. The configuration of the sample used for independent evaluator testing and penetration testing was the same as described in the [ST]. The evaluator testing and penetration testing was performed on the TOE in the operational life-cycle state with applet instance configurations specified in the Security Target [ST]. The TOE was tested in the following configurations: • The TOE in an exposed QFP100 package on a developer provided carrier board. • Using T=0, T=1 (ISO/IEC 7816), SPI, and T=CL (ISO/IEC 14443) 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. Not all key sizes specified in the [ST] have sufficient cryptographic strength for satisfying the AVA_VAN.5 “high attack potential”. The TOE supports a wider range of key sizes (see [ST]), including those with sufficient algorithmic security level to exceed 100 bits as required for high attack potential (AVA_VAN.5). The strength of the implementation of the cryptographic functionality has been assessed in the evaluation, as part of the AVA_VAN activities. For composite evaluations, please consult the [ETRfC] for details. 2.7 Reused Evaluation Results There has been extensive reuse of the ALC aspects for the sites involved in the development and production of the TOE, by use of Site Technical Audit Reports. 2.8 Evaluated Configuration The TOE is defined uniquely by its name and version number GEOP01 on GSEA01 Security Chip version 1.0. The user can use the command in chapter 3.3 of the GEOP User Manual to read the TOE version. 2.9 Evaluation Results The evaluation lab documented their evaluation results in the [ETR], which references an ASE Intermediate Report and other evaluator documents, and a Site Technical Audit Report(s) for the Wuhan site [STAR] 2. To support composite evaluations according to [COMP] a derived document 2 The Site Technical Audit Report contains information necessary to an evaluation lab and certification body for the reuse of the site audit report in a TOE evaluation. Page: 10/13 of report number: NSCIB-CC-0583946-CR, dated 2 June 2023 ® TÜV, TUEV and TUV are registered trademarks. Any use or application requires prior approval. [ETRfC] was provided and approved. This document provides details of the TOE evaluation that must be considered when this TOE is used as platform in a composite evaluation. The verdict of each claimed assurance requirement is “Pass”. Based on the above evaluation results the evaluation lab concluded the GEOP01 on GSEA01 Security Chip version 1.0, 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 ‘demonstrable’ conformance to the Protection Profile [PP]. 2.10 Comments/Recommendations The user guidance as outlined in section 2.5 “Documentation” contains necessary information about the usage of the TOE. This TOE is critically dependent on the operational environment to provide countermeasures against specific attacks as described in the GEOP01 Security Guidance sections RSA_4, and GNRL_10. Therefore, it is vital to maintain meticulous adherence to the user guidance of both the software and the hardware part of the TOE. 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: OSCCA Algorithms SM2, SM3, SM4 and SM9, which are out of scope as there are no security claims relating to these. 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).
