Trustworthy Systems Supporting Server Signing - Part 1: General System Security Requirements
1.1 General
This document specifies security requirements and recommendations for Trustworthy Systems Supporting Server Signing (TW4S) that generate digital signatures.
The TW4S is composed at least of one Server Signing Application (SSA) and one Signature Creation Device (SCDev) or one remote Signature Creation Device.
A remote SCDev is a SCDev extended with remote control provided by a Signature Activation Module (SAM) executed in a tamper protected environment. This module uses the Signature Activation Data (SAD), collected through a Signature Activation Protocol (SAP), in order to guarantee with a high level of confidence that the signing keys are used under sole control of the signer.
The SSA uses a SCDev or a remote SCDev in order to generate, maintain and use the signing keys under the sole control of their authorized signer. Signing key import from CAs is out of scope.
So when the SSA uses a remote SCDev, the authorized signer remotely controls the signing key with a high level of confidence.
A TW4S is intended to deliver to the signer or to some other application, a digital signature created based on the data to be signed.
This standard:
- provides commonly recognized functional models of TW4S;
- specifies overall requirements that apply across all of the services identified in the functional model;
- specifies security requirements for each of the services identified in the TW4S;
- specifies security requirements for sensitive system components which may be used by the TW4S.
This standard is technology and protocol neutral and focuses on security requirements.
1.2 Outside of the scope
The following aspects are considered outside of the scope of this document:
- other trusted services that may be used alongside this service such as certificate issuance, signature validation service, time-stamping service and information preservation service;
- any application or system outside of the TW4S (in particular the signature creation application including the creation of advanced signature formats);
- signing key and signing certificate import from CAs;
- the legal interpretation of the form of signature (e.g. electronic signature, electronic seal, qualified or otherwise).
1.3 Audience
This standard specifies security requirements that are intended to be followed by:
- providers of TW4S systems;
- Trust Service Providers (TSP) offering a signature creation service.

If the external party uses an electronic identification means issued under a notified scheme that is included in the list published by the Commission pursuant to Article 9 of the eIDAS [4] Regulation, there is no need to demonstrate the conformance to the required level, conformance to the regulatory requirements can be assumed. 5.7.4.3 SCAL2 The TSP SHALL ensure that the authentication process delegated to the external party meets the requirements specified in SRA_SAP.1.1. The TSP SHALL ensure that: — the external party fulfils all the relevant requirements of this standard and the requirements for registration according to the applicable regulatory requirements, or NOTE 1 In the context of the European Union, the applicable regulatory requirements are defined in REGULATION (EU) No 910/2014 [4]. — the authentication process delegated to the external party uses an electronic identification means issued under a notified scheme in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements. NOTE 2 In the context of the European Union, the list of electronic identification means, issued under notified schemes, is published by the European Commission pursuant to Article 9 of REGULATION (EU) No 910/2014 [4].
Figure 1 — Scope of requirements NOTE The scope of requirements may be extended to an external party when using delegation of authentication (see 5.7.4). 5.13.3 Signature activation mechanisms 5.13.3.1 General This clause presents some suggested models for signature activation in order to create a digital signature. Any other architecture compliant with Clause 6 MAY be implemented. TW4S is typically used by a set of signers, each signer owning one or several signing keys and TW4S can include one or several SCDev to perform signature operations. The signing key can be securely stored outside the SCDev and loaded dynamically, provided that controls apply to ensure the same security on the signing key. Key loading/unloading mechanisms to be employed for protecting signing keys are outside the scope of this standard. 5.13.3.2 Signature activation for SCAL1 Signing key confidentiality and integrity are ensured by the SCDev. The SCDev can be activated by the SSA. The activation can remain for a given period and/or for a given number of signatures. The signing key activation requires that the signer has been authenticated by the SSA (see Figure 2). When the signer authentication succeeds, the corresponding signing key MAY be used for signature operation on behalf of signer within a certain time frame and/or a certain amount of signature operations. This allows the SSA to be used for bulk/batch signature purposes. SIST EN 419241-1:2018
Figure 2 —Signature activation system with SCAL1 NOTE This architecture may be extended to an external party when using delegation of authentication (see 5.7.4). This architecture can be used to create digital signature value (e.g. hash encrypted using the signer’s private key) with low assurance of control. 5.13.3.3 Signature activation for SCAL2 Signing key confidentiality and integrity are ensured by the remote SCDev. The remote SCDev is under control of the SSA. The remote SCDev participates in SAP and ensures that the signature operation is under the legitimate signer control. The SSA interfaces via a secure channel the SAM of the remote SCDev which verifies the SAD in order to activate the corresponding signing key (see Figure 3). The signer authentication can remain for a given period and/or for a given number of signatures. But SAD computation SHALL be done for each signature operation. The SAD MAY be linked to a set of DTBS/R, this allows the SSA to be used for bulk/batch signature purposes. Signer authentication can be done using a SSIC that is used to create a link between the signer and the signature as part of the SAD. The SAD uses is under the responsibility of the SAM: — If the SAD is generated by the SIC, it SHALL be transferred securely from the SIC to the SAM for verification. — If the SAD is not generated by the SIC, it SHALL be generated on/during a successful signer’s authentication using the SIC and be transferred securely to the SAM for verification. SIST EN 419241-1:2018
Figure 3 — Signature activation system with SCAL2 NOTE 1 This architecture may be extended to an external party when using delegation of authentication (see 5.7.4). NOTE 2 The scope of requirements may be extended to an external party when using delegation of authentication (see 5.7.4). This architecture can be used to create digital signature value (e.g. hash encrypted using the signer’s private key) with higher assurance of control. 5.13.4 TW4S components The core parts of a TW4S for which this standard specifies requirements are the set of functional components: — Signing key setup – to generate signing keys within the SCDev and assign them for use by authorized signers. — Signing key management – to delete, backup and restore signing keys within the SCDev. — Signer authentication – to authorize the use of signing key by the signer. — Digital signature creation – to interface the authorized signer in order to create the digital signature within the SCDev. In order to enhance level of assurance, additional components are mandatory to reach SCAL2: — The SIC – to create a link between the signer and the signature operation within the SAP. SIC MAY generate SAD in the signer’s environment.
The SAM provides a set of components: — SAD generation – to generate SAD in the tamper protected environment when the SAD is not generated by the SIC. — Signing key activation – to manage SAD verification and to activate the signing keys. — Signing key generation – to manage authentication factors bound to signing keys. 6 Security requirements 6.1 General This clause describes all requirements applicable to a server signing system in order to be regarded as a TW4S.
