It is not its friction with the cloth that makes the iron hot.
  ITSECThe first version of ITSEC (Information Technology Security Evaluation Criteria) was elaborated jointly by England, France, the Netherlands and Germany in 1990, as a European counterpart of TCSEC. Version 1.2 of ITSEC was issued for use in the European Community experimentally in 1991. In respect of its principles and requirements, ITSEC basically agrees with TCSEC. However, in addition to the security classes interpreted in the same way as TCSEC, ITSEC also determines security classes for the relevant types of IT systems for which it determines the basic security features of TCSEC, but it highlights in each case only the requirements that characterize the given type of system (basic functions of reliable IT systems, functionality classes, protection mechanisms, qualification criteria and qualification stages). |
