STATEMENT

The following interprets the ASE_PPC requirements in their interaction with the Part 1 (Annex C) specification of the PP Claims Rationale:

The Part 1 Section C.2.9 "d)" specification of the PP Claims Rationale is a more complete list of requirements than is found in the ASE_PPC elements in Part 3.

RECOMMENDED CRITERIA CHANGES

To address this interpretation, a new Content and Presentation element should be added to the ASE_PPC.1 component:

ASE_PPC.1.xC: The PP Claims Rationale shall explain any difference between the ST security objectives and requirements and those of any PP to which conformance is claimed.

Additional work units should be added to the CEM to address this new content and presentation element.

SUPPORT:

This interpretation addresses an omission in the Common Criteria. Part 1 Section C.2.9 "d)" specifies the required content for the PP claims rationale, but this was never captured in Part 3.
