Readers are reminded that the certification of this product (TOE) is the result of maintenance, rather than an actual re-evaluation of the product.
Maintenance only considers the affect of TOE changes on the assurance baseline (i.e. the original evaluated TOE);
maintenance is not intended to provide assurance in regard to the resistance of the TOE to new vulnerabilities or attack methods discovered since the date of the initial certificate.
Such assurance can only be gained through re-evaluation.
Using a security impact analysis of the changes made to the TOE, which was provided by the developer, the CCEVS has determined that the impact of changes on the TOE are considered minor and that independent evaluator analysis was not necessary.
A summary of the results can be found in the Maintenance Report, which is written in relation to the product's original validation report and Security Target.
Readers are therefore reminded to read the Security Target, Validation Report, and the Assurance Maintenance Report to fully understand the meaning of what a maintained certificate represents.
Product Description
The changes are summarized below.
Major Changes
None.
Minor Changes
No changes were made to the individual products within the validated TOE.
Additional models are proposed containing new form factors (in terms of size and connectors) but with the same protocols (SATA and PCIe/NVMe) which were fully evaluated in the Assurance Baseline. No hardware components are being added to the models in the validated TOE outside of the form factor / connector changes explicitly described in tables below. The changes in hardware are not considered to be security relevant. Ten models of storage drives are proposed for addition.
As per the previous evaluation documented in the “Scalar and Express P-series SSD, version NV.R1900 Security Target, version 1.1, 22 February 2023”, together with this assurance continuity activity, the final set of claimed supported evaluated devices is:

Proposed models are functionally equivalent to all models of the Validated TOE. The following models of the Validated TOE share the highest degree of similarity in terms of form factor, specifically, the following models of the Validated TOE are characterized as “2.5 SATA 9.5mm” form factor whereas the proposed models are characterized as “2.5" SATA 9.5mm R-SATA” where “R-SATA” denotes a ‘ruggedized’ SATA connector:
- NS371P08T0CC0-1F
- NS371P10T0CC0-1F
- NS379P16T0VC0-1F
|
Storage Capacity:
- Proposed models have the new storage capacities of 250GB, 500GB, 1TB and 2TB, as compared to the capacities of 500GB, 2TB and 4TB in comparable models of the validated TOE.
Connector Form factor:
- Proposed models have a ruggedized connector for the ‘2.5” SATA’ drive form factor (maintaining the EIA SFF-8201 specification). The ruggedization is provided by structural form of the physical connector mating pairs while maintaining identical pinout morphology and logic.

No.

Proposed models are functionally equivalent to all models of the Validated TOE, with the following exception:
- Proposed models do not have access to GPIO pins. As such, the ‘secure erase’ security functionality cannot be initiated via GPIO; however, ‘secure erase’ TSF is still accessible via the normal SATA data pins, identical to all other models in the Validated TOE. For these proposed models, initiating the ‘secure erase’ TSF operates identically to the ‘secure erase’ TSF in the Validated TOE, regardless if initiated by an ATA/NVM command via the typical data pinout, or from a voltage signal on the specific GPIO pin. Thus, the absence of the GPIO interface is not considered an impact to the Assurance Baseline.
The following models of the Validated TOE share the highest degree of similarity in terms of form factor, specifically, the following model of the Validated TOE is characterized as a “2.5” PCIe/NVMe (U.2)” formfactor whereas the proposed models are characterized as “RMM Form Factor” where “RMM” denotes a ‘ruggedized’ SATA connector, without GPIO access:
- NS371P08T0CC0-1F
- NS371P10T0CC0-1F
- NS379P16T0VC0-1F
- NS379P20T0VC0-1F
|
Storage Capacity:
- Proposed models have 8TB, 16TB, and 20TB capacity as compared to the capacity of 10TB for the previously validated comparable model.
Connector Form factor:
- Proposed models have a ruggedized connector for the ‘2.5” SATA’ drive form factor (maintaining the EIA SFF-8201 specification). The ruggedization is provided by structural form of the physical connector mating pairs. SATA pinout is rearranged in a novel configuration. New pinout houses 7 total pins – maintaining the 7 SATA power/data pins present on all Validated TOE models while excluding the GPIO pins.

The only difference between the proposed model and the Validated TOE model is in terms of storage capacity.
