CSA ISO/IEC TR 15446:20

CSA Preface Standards development within the Information Technology sector is harmonized with international standards development.

Also, as a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Canada participates in the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (ITU-T). For brevity, this Standard will be referred to as \"CSA ISO/IEC TR 15446\" throughout. This Standard supersedes CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC TR 15446-10 (adopted ISO/IEC TR 15446:2009). At the time of publication, ISO/IEC TR 15446:2017 is available from ISO and IEC in English only. CSA Group will publish the French version when it becomes available from ISO and IEC.

It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group. Scope This document provides guidance relating to the construction of Protection Profiles (PPs) and Security Targets (STs) that are intended to be compliant with the third edition of ISO/IEC 15408 (all parts). It is also applicable to PPs and STs compliant with Common Criteria Version 3.1 Revision 4[6], a technically identical standard published by the Common Criteria Management Board, a consortium of governmental organizations involved in IT security evaluation and certification. NOTE This document is not intended as an introduction to evaluation using ISO/IEC 15408 (all parts). Readers who seek such an introduction can read ISO/IEC 15408-1. This document does not deal with associated tasks beyond PP and ST specification such as PP registration and the handling of protected intellectual property.
