Abstract

It is difficult to define reliable security policy components that should be applied to validate a secure computing environment. The job gets further complicated when one has to deal with multiple policies in single computing environment. This paper demonstrates how we can overcome the difficulties of defining reliable security components by using evaluation criteria. In this paper we use common criteria to derive the security functional components for a multipolicy-based network computing environment. In the verification process, the derived policy components are related to the specific security objectives of the network communication environment. The evidence listed in the case study supports the claims that the proposed network security policy interpretation framework is a complete and cohesive set of requirements.
