Scope:

This document provides guidance for:

— selecting and specifying security functional requirements (SFRs) from ISO/IEC 15408-2 to protect Personally Identifiable Information (PII);
— the procedure to define both privacy and security functional requirements in a coordinated manner; and
— developing privacy functional requirements as extended components based on the privacy principles defined in ISO/IEC 29100 through the paradigm described in ISO/IEC 15408-2.

The intended audience for this document are:

— developers who implement products or systems that deal with PII and want to undergo a security evaluation of those products using ISO/IEC 15408. They will get guidance how to select security functional requirements for the Security Target of their product or system that map to the privacy principles defined in ISO/IEC 29100;
— authors of Protection Profiles that address the protection of PII; and
— evaluators that use ISO/IEC 15408 and ISO/IEC 18045 for a security evaluation.

This document is intended to be fully consistent with ISO/IEC 15408; however, in the event of any inconsistency between this document and ISO/IEC 15408, the latter, as a normative standard, takes precedence.

Project need:

To review the Standard within the required 5 year period.
