Introduction
Product Evaluation and Certification is a key component in ensuring the resilience of critical infrastructure, by providing assurance that security is built into products at the design stage rather than included as an afterthought. The Common Criteria (CC), de facto standard for product evaluation, defines a common set of security functions which product developers use to establish the security requirements of their IT products in a standardised language.
In collaboration with and conducted by Cyber Security Agency of Singapore, this course introduces the principles and methodologies for Security Evaluation, for hardware and embedded systems security. Through coursework and hands-on experience, researchers/engineers/product developers who want to understand or consider a future career in security evaluation and certification can benefit from taking this course.
