Preliminary Remarks
Under the BSIG1
Act, the Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik
(BSI) has the task of issuing certificates for information technology products as
well as for Protection Profiles (PP).
A PP defines an implementation-independent set of IT security requirements for
a category of TOEs which are intended to meet common consumer needs for IT
security. The development and certification of a PP or the reference to an
existent one gives consumers the possibility to express their IT security needs
without referring to a special product. Product or system certifications can be
based on Protection Profiles. For products which have been certified based on
a Protection Profile an individual certificate will be issued.
Certification of a Protection Profile is carried out on the instigation of the author,
hereinafter called the sponsor.
A part of the procedure is the technical examination (evaluation) of the
Protection Profile according to Common Criteria [1].
The evaluation is carried out by an evaluation facility recognised by the BSI or
by the BSI itself.
The result of the certification procedure is the present Certification Report. This
report contains among others the certificate (summarised assessment) and the
detailed Certification Results.

2 Recognition Agreements
In order to avoid multiple certification of the same Protection Profile in different
countries a mutual recognition of Protection Profile certificates under certain
conditions was agreed.
An arrangement (Common Criteria Arrangement) on the mutual recognition of
certificates based on the CC evaluation assurance levels up to and including
EAL 4 was signed in May 2000. It includes also the recognition of Protection
Profiles based on the CC. The arrangement was signed by the national bodies
of Australia, Canada, Finland France, Germany, Greece, Italy, The Netherlands,
New Zealand, Norway, Spain, United Kingdom and the United States. Israel
joined the arrangement in November 2000, Sweden in February 2002.

3 Performance of Evaluation and Certification
The certification body monitors each individual evaluation to ensure a uniform
procedure, a uniform interpretation of the criteria and uniform ratings.
The Protection Profile ‘Secure Signature-Creation Device Type 3’, Version 1.05
has undergone the certification procedure at the BSI.
The evaluation of the Protection Profile ‘Secure Signature-Creation Device Type
3’, Version 1.05 was conducted by 'Prüfstelle für IT-Sicherheit der TÜV
Informationstechnik GmbH - ein Unternehmen der RWTÜV-Gruppe'. The
evaluation facility of TÜV Informationstechnik GmbH is an evaluation facility
recognised by BSI (ITSEF)6
.
Sponsor is CEN/ISSS Information Society Standardization System, Workshop
on Electronic Signatures.
The certification was concluded with
• the comparability check and
• the preparation of this Certification Report.
This work was completed by the BSI on 3. April 2002.

1 PP Overview
This Protection Profile ‘Secure Signature-Creation Devices (SSCD-PP) Type 3‘
is established by CEN/ISSS for use by the European Commission in
accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 9 of the Directive 1999/93/ec
of the European parliament and of the council of 13 December 1999 on a
Community framework for electronic signatures as generally recognised
standard for electronic-signature products.
The intent of this Protection Profile SSCD-PP Type 3 is to specify functional and
assurance requirements for secure signature-creation devices (SSCD) in
conformance with Annex III of the directive 1999/93/ec. Member States shall
presume that there is compliance with the requirements laid down in Annex III
of the Directive when electronic signature products are evaluated according to
Security Targets (ST) that are compliant with this PP. SSCD Type 1 [5]
represent the components for the generation of the Signature-Creation Data
(SCD) and SSCD Type 2 [6] represent the SCD storage and signature-creation
component. The SSCD of Type 3 is a combination of SSCD Type 1 and SSCD
Type 2.
2 Security Functional Requirements
This section contains the functional requirements that must be satisfied by a
SSCD-PP Type 3 compliant TOE.
All functional requirements are drawn from Common Criteria, Version 2.1, Part
2 except for Security Functional Component FPT_EMSEC.1.

FCS_CKM.1 Cryptographic key generation
FCS_CKM.4 Cryptographic key destruction
FCS_COP.1 Cryptographic operation

3 Assurance Package
The security assurance requirements are based entirely on the assurance
components defined in Part 3 of the Common Criteria. The assurance require-
ments are assurance level EAL4+ (Evaluation Assurance Level 4 augmented).
The following table shows the augmented assurance components.
