with ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) 5.3.1, from Intel Corporation.
2 TOE Description
McAfee Database Security 5.1 with ePO 5.3.1 is a software solution that monitors a Database
Management System (DBMS) and protects it from both internal and external threats. The
TOE provides visibility into DBMS user and application activity by way of analysis of SQL
statements and queries interacting with the DBMS. Analysis of DBMS transactions is
determined by a monitoring policy consisting of a set of rules (predefined and/or custom)
which are configured via the McAfee ePO to generate events and/or terminate suspicious
activities. The TOE is comprised of the following components:
 McAfee Database Security Sensor which enables the monitoring of all local and
network access to the DBMS(s) in real-time;
 McAfee Agent which resides on the DBMS host server and provides secure
communication between the sensor on the managed DBMS and the ePO server; and
 McAfee ePO which executes on a dedicated server to manage and securely
communicate with all installed sensors via the McAfee Agent.
The TOE protects transmissions between the ePO and the McAfee Agent from disclosure and
modification by encrypting the transmissions under TLS.

9 Evaluation Analysis Activities
The evaluation analysis activities involved a structured evaluation of McAfee Database
Security 5.1 with ePO 5.3.1, including the following areas:
Development: The evaluators analyzed the McAfee Database Security 5.1 with ePO 5.3.1
functional specification and design documentation; they determined that the design
completely and accurately describes the TOE security functionality (TSF) interfaces, the TSF
subsystems and how the TSF implements the security functional requirements (SFRs). The
evaluators analyzed the McAfee Database Security 5.1 with ePO 5.3.1 security architectural
description and determined that the initialization process is secure, that the security functions
are protected against tamper and bypass, and that security domains are maintained. The
evaluators also independently verified that the correspondence mappings between the design
documents are correct.
Guidance Documents: The evaluators examined the McAfee Database Security 5.1 with
ePO 5.3.1 preparative user guidance and operational user guidance and determined that it
sufficiently and unambiguously describes how to securely transform the TOE into its
evaluated configuration and how to use and administer the product. The evaluators examined
and tested the preparative and operational guidance, and determined that they are complete
and sufficiently detailed to result in a secure configuration.
Life-cycle support: An analysis of the McAfee Database Security 5.1 with ePO 5.3.1
configuration management system and associated documentation was performed. The

10 ITS Product Testing
Testing consists of the following three steps: assessing developer tests, performing
independent functional tests, and performing penetration tests.
10.1 Assessment of Developer Tests
The evaluators verified that the developer has met their testing responsibilities by examining
their test evidence, and reviewing their test results, as documented in the ETR3
.
The evaluators analyzed the developer’s test coverage analysis and found it to be complete
and accurate. The correspondence between the tests identified in the developer’s test
documentation and the functional specification was complete.
10.2 Independent Functional Testing
During this evaluation, the evaluator developed independent functional tests by examining
design and guidance documentation.
All testing was planned and documented to a sufficient level of detail to allow repeatability
of the testing procedures and results. Resulting from this test coverage approach is the
following list of test goals:
a. Repeat of Developer's Tests: The objective of this test goal is to repeat a subset of the
developer's tests;
b. Restricted Data Access: The objective of this test case is to verify that the TSF prevents
any interaction with the TOE until the user has been identified and authenticated;
c. Queries and Reports: The objective of this test case is to demonstrate that system data is
provided in a manner suitable for the user to interpret it;
d. Reaction to Malicious Code detection: The objective of this test case is to confirm that
the TOE will detect and react to malicious SQL code while ensuring that the malicious
code is not executed; and
e. Verification of Cryptographic Modules: The objective of this test goal is to confirm the
versions of the cryptographic modules implemented in the TOE.
10.3 Independent Penetration Testing
Subsequent to the independent review of public domain vulnerability databases and all
evaluation deliverables, limited independent evaluator penetration testing was conducted.
The penetration tests focused on:
a. Use of automated vulnerability scanning tools to discover potential network, platform and
application layer vulnerabilities such as Heartbleed, Shellshock, POODLE, GHOST, and
FREAK;
3
The ETR is a CCS document that contains information proprietary to the developer and/or the evaluator, and
is not releasable for public review.

McAfee Database Security 5.1 with ePO 5.3.1
___________________________________________________________________________
Version 1.0 16 February 2016
- Page 9 of 11 -
b. Session Management: The objective of this test goal is to attempt to bypass administrator
authentication; and
c. Disrupt Sensor: The objective of this test goal is to attempt to disable the sensor using
malformed data.
The independent penetration testing did not uncover any exploitable vulnerabilities in the
intended operating environment.
10.4 Conduct of Testing
McAfee Database Security 5.1 with ePO 5.3.1 was subjected to a comprehensive suite of
formally documented, independent functional and penetration tests. The detailed testing
activities, including configurations, procedures, test cases, expected results and observed
results are documented in a separate Test Results document.
10.5 Testing Results
The developer’s tests and the independent functional tests yielded the expected results,
providing assurance that TOE short name behaves as specified in its ST and functional
specification.
11 Results of the Evaluation
This evaluation has provided the basis for a EAL 2+ level of assurance. The overall verdict
for the evaluation is PASS. These results are supported by evidence in the ETR.
