4.2 Security Objectives for the Environment

4.2.1 IT Security Objectives

The following IT security objectives are to be satisfied by the environment:

OE.TIME

The environment must provide reliable timestamps for the time-stamping of audit events.

OE.CERTIFICATE The environment must provide the required certificate infrastructure so that the validity of certificates can be verified. The certificate infrastructure must be properly and securely maintained so that the status of certificates is accurately provided to the TOE.

OE.DOMSEP

The environment must maintain a security domain for the Nortel VPN Client software that

 

protects it from interference and tampering by untrusted subjects.

4.2.2 Non-IT Security Objectives

The following non-IT environment security objectives are to be satisfied without imposing technical requirements on the TOE. That is, they will not require the implementation of functions in the TOE hardware and/or software. Thus, they will be satisfied largely through application of procedural or administrative measures.

OE.PHYS-SECThe TOE must be physically protected so that only TOE users who possess the appropriate privileges have access.

OE.TRAINED Those responsible for the TOE must train TOE users to establish and maintain sound security policies and practices.

OE.DELIVERY Those responsible for the TOE must ensure that it is delivered, installed, managed and operated in accordance with documented delivery and installation/setup procedures.
