2.3What This Guide DescribesThis guide makes a distinction between two types of usage scenarios:
A CC-evaluated configuration makes specific assumptions about installation, configuration, and security. This distinguishes it from most production usages of the product. A CC-evaluated version of the product includes certain restrictions on the way product components are employed and draws specific boundaries around functionality and performance. The purpose of this guide is to describe the assumptions, conditions, and boundaries required to reproduce the configuration and utilization of Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 established in the Common Criteria evaluation. 2.4Configuration RoadmapThis Common Criteria evaluation is based on the English version of Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 and its documentation. You use only the English-version and refer only to the English-version technical documentation when deploying the CC-evaluated version of Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2. To install and configure a CC-evaluated configuration, you must first use the standard technical documentation for Windows. Then apply all relevant hardening measures defined in the Security guidance documentation for Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 listed in Section 1.4. Next, refer to the Windows 7, Server 2008 R2 Common Criteria Supplemental Administrator’s Guide (this document) for supplemental information specific to the Common Criteria requirements. If configuration recommendations in the technical documentation are not consistent with the instructions in the Windows 7, Server 2008 R2 Common Criteria Supplemental Administrator’s Guide, the information in the Windows 7, Server 2008 R2 Common Criteria Supplemental Administrator’s Guide takes precedence and applies in order to replicated the evaluated configuration. Use the following checklist as a roadmap to configuring a CC-evaluated system:
3Specification and References for a CC-evaluated SystemThis section provides specifications and references for implementing a Common Criteria (CC)-evaluated Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 deployments. It covers the following topics
3.1About the Evaluated Version of Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 contain security technology that meets the requirements of the Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level (EAL) 4+. The system configuration that meets these requirements is referred to as the CC-evaluated system in this guide. The CC evaluation for Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 was performed on the specific configuration defined in this guide. Note that this covers the use of additional hardware device drivers. Any deviation from this configuration may result in a non-evaluated system, but does not necessarily mean that the security of the resulting system is reduced. It is the responsibility of the individual organization to determine the potential risks and benefits associated with installing newer product versions or additional software that was not subject to this evaluation, and correspondingly deviating from the evaluated configuration described in this document. The Target of Evaluation (TOE) for this evaluation of Windows is defined as follows:
Security Updates installed:
If you choose to replicate the configuration used during the Common Criteria testing, the above products must be installed. However, it is a best practice to keep your software up to date with the current security updates. 3.1.1Detailed Hardware Requirements3.1.1.1MemoryThe maximum amount of memory that can be used is determined by the type of operating system, as follows:
3.1.1.2ProcessorsDepending on the edition of Windows, the largest number of logical processors a Windows operating system can support can be from four to as many as 64. A logical processor can be a core processor or a processor using hyper-threading technology. The following are some examples of supported systems and the number of logical processors they provide:
3.1.2NetworkingThe following networking configurations are supported:
3.1.2.1StorageThe following list of supported physical storage options is supported:
3.1.2.2Peripheral Hardware ComponentsThe following peripheral hardware components that can also be used with Windows:
