CS4650 Application of Security Evaluation Criteria for Information and Software Assurance (3-1)
Instructor: Thuy Nguyen
This course provides students with the Common Criteria skills and knowledge to develop, evaluate and deploy IA solutions that meet the requirements specified in DoDD 8500.1 and DoDI 8500.2.
Directive 8500.1 specifies that all IA or IA-enabled IT products used in DoD information systems must comply with the evaluation and validation requirements of the acquisition policy stated in the National Security Telecommunications and Information Systems Security Policy (NSTISSP) No. 11. The internationally-recognized CC is explicitly specified in DoD Instruction 8500.2 as the official evaluation criteria for DoD systems.
Theory and practice from other IA courses are applied in the context of security evaluation criteria. Students gain an understanding of how security evaluation philosophies, processes and issues are used for:
- Specifying system requirements for development and procurement purposes
- Analyzing security requirements and architectures
- Providing an organizational framework for research projects
PREREQUISITES: CS3600 and CS4600 or consent of instructor
