The Target of Evaluation (TOE) is the Bundesdruckerei Document Application with tamperevident casing 2.5.1.
The Document Application is running on a Document Management Terminal (DMT). It is used to read the German Passport (ePass), to read and update the electronic data of the German identification card (“Personalausweis (PA)”) and electronic resident permit (“elektronischer Aufenthaltstitel (eAT)”) as well as to verify the document’s authenticity and the integrity of its data.
The TOE is operated by governmental organisations, e.g. municipal office, police, government or other state approved agencies. The TOE is specifically applied in registration offices to allow card holders to verify that their ePass, PA or eAT is working correctly. In case of PA and eAT it is further possible to update the address information of the card holder, the card holder’s PIN for eID applications, and the community ID (“Gemeindeschlüssel”). In addition, the eID application functionality of the PA or eAT can be activated or deactivated. Additionally the TOE ensures secure communication to external control software and provides a tamper-evident enclosure.
Necessary protocols for the communication of the TOE with the electronic identity documents like the ePass, PA or eAT are described in [ICAO_9303], [TR-03110-1], [TR-03110-2], and [TR-03110-3].
