SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE C 1 C 2 B 1 B 2 B 3 A 1 The TCB shall maintain a domain for its own execution that protects it from tampering The TCB shall isolate the resources to be protected The TCB shall maintain process isolation The TCB shall be internally structured into well -defined largely independent modules The TCB shall incorporate significant use of layering, abstraction and data hiding No change 9
DESIGN SPECIFICATION AND VERIFICATION C 2 No requirement B 1 B 2 Informal or formal model of the security policy Formal model of the security policy that is proven consistent with its axioms DTLS (descriptive top-level specification) of the TCB A convincing argument shall be given that the DTLS is consistent with the model FTLS (formal top-level specification) of the TCB A combination of formal and informal techniques shall be used to show that the FTLS is consistent with the model B 3 A 1 A convincing argument shall be given that the DTLS is consistent with the model 10
