ISO/IEC 19790:2006

Information technology -- Security techniques -- Security requirements for cryptographic modules

Standard Details

ISO/IEC 19790:2006 specifies the security requirements for a cryptographic module utilized within a security system protecting sensitive information in computer and telecommunication systems.

ISO/IEC 19790:2006 specifies the following.
Four levels of increasing security for cryptographic modules. Each level offers an increase in security over the preceding level. The following functional security objectives:module specification;ports and interfaces;roles, services and authentication;finite state model;physical security; operational environment;cryptographic key management;self-tests; design assurance;mitigation of other attacks.

ISO/IEC 19790:2006 will be complemented by a future International Standard defining the associated evaluation and test methods.

ISO/IEC 19790:2006 is derived from NIST Federal Information Processing Standard PUB 140-2 May 25, 2001.
