The TOE is IBM’s implementation of an application server:
\r\nThe TOE’s primary purpose is to provide an environment for running and managing user-supplied enterprise applications and their components. In particular, the product provides the capabilities to identify users and to control what resources a user can access through enterprise applications. In addition to its primary purpose, the product provides tools for doing useful functions such as assembling and troubleshooting enterprise applications.
\r\nThe WebSphere Application Server TOE Components are the Product Application Server, wsadmin tool, Product Deployment Manager Server, and Product Node Agent Server.
","evaluation_configuration":null,"security_evaluation_summary":"The evaluation was carried out in accordance to the Common Criteria Evaluation and Validation Scheme (CCEVS) process and scheme. The evaluation demonstrated that the WebSphere Application Server TOE meets the security requirements contained in the Security Target. The criteria against which the WebSphere Application Server TOE was judged are described in the Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation, Version 3.1. The evaluation methodology used by the evaluation team to conduct the evaluation is the Common Methodology for Information Technology Security Evaluation, Version 3.1. Science Application International Corporation (SAIC) determined that the evaluation assurance level (EAL) for the WebSphere Application Server TOE is EAL 4 augmented with ALC_FLR.2. The TOE, configured as specified in the installation guide, satisfies all of the security functional requirements stated in the Security Target. Several validators on behalf of the CCEVS Validation Body monitored the evaluation carried out by SAIC. The evaluation was completed in May 2012. Results of the evaluation can be found in the Common Criteria Evaluation and Validation Scheme Validation Report for WebSphere Application Server for z/OS V7 Service level 7.0.0.19 with APAR PM55522 prepared by CCEVS.
","environmental_strengths":"The WebSphere Application Server TOE is a commercial product that provides identification, access control, Audit, and the management of access control to protective resources. The WebSphere Application Server TOE provides a level of protection that is appropriate for operating environments where the WebSphere Application Server TOE and the platform upon which is installed can be appropriately protected from physical attacks.
\r\nThe WebSphere Application Server TOE supports the following security functions: Identification, Access Control, Security Management, and Audit.
\r\nIdentification and Re-identification
\r\nThe TOE identifies a client before performing any other TSF mediated action for the client with the exception of access to a method or static web content that is not configured with a security constraint or specifically allows access to “Everyone”. The environment is depended upon to authenticate and maintain security attributes associated with users.
\r\n\r\n
Access Control
\r\nThe TOE provides access control functions that allow only authorized remote callers to access to the sensitive resources. The TOE permits a client to access a protected resource only if a user or group ID of the user is mapped to a role that has permission to access the resource. The resources protected by the TOE are:
\r\n\r\n
\r\n
Security Management
\r\nThe TOE maintains the following Administration roles:
\r\nThese roles may use the security management functions that provide a mechanism for dynamically configuring some security attributes used by TOE access control functions.
\r\nThe TOE maintains other roles as follows:
\r\n\r\n
Security Audit
\r\nThe TOE provides audit functions that provide authorized administrators to associate users with security relevant actions for identification, access control and for enabling and disabling the audit function. The TOE relies on the operational environment for audit record storage.
