Title
Protection Profile For The Smartphone Operating System
Abstract
With the development of communication industry, the smartphone plays a more important role in people's lives, providing a rich functionality with a variety of operating system platforms (such as: Symbian, Windows Mobile, Android, etc.). However, since the internet becomes increasingly complex and changeable brought by the cyber threats and vulnerabilities, more and more manufacturers focus on the security evaluation of smartphone operating system to make their product more secure. At present, the international security assessment criteria of information product is the common criteria (CC), which is the foundation of the protection profile (PP) and can provide function requirements and assurance requirements as the basis for security evaluation. In view of this fact, this paper researches the security mechanisms and analyses the risk factors in different smartphone operating systems. Then, this paper determines the security objectives and security requirements used for the common smartphone operating system. Finally, this paper proposes the corresponding protection profile in EAL4+ (evaluation assurance level 4 including the extended security assurance requirements) for the smartphone operating system based on the CC.
