Poll for Separation Kernel (microkernel) CC Protection Profile
Hello seL4 devel, microkernel-based systems can be used as separation kernels[*] for security. At the moment there is a poll on input for a Common Criteria for Information Technology Security (CC) separation kernel protection profile draft, organized by a certMILS.eu colleague from Rostock Univ, at https://evasys.uni-rostock.de/evasys/online.php?p=ccuf-sk-wg The idea is to have a base protection profile (PP) that all players can agree with and to specify additional functionality as add-ons to the PP (e.g., in the form of PP modules). The questionnaire is an opportunity to provide early feedback. Note that there are no mandatory questions, i.e. you can freely move around / you can leave any question unanswered - the only condition for your feedback be submitted to the collection system is that you go to the last page and use the submit button there. We invite feedback via that poll by end of this week. If, beyond the questionnaire, you want to join the Common Criteria User's Forum separation kernel working group, or anyone would like to have more time, just let me know by answering to this email.

Hello seL4 devel, for those who (thanks!) participated in the poll on the separation kernel protection profile (or are otherwise interested in the results), my colleague Thorsten from certMILS has made available the results at: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.2541464 For the impatient: the results are in Chapter 4. Of course this is just the beginning, and the real task for 2019 is to act on the observations :-) . Recall that if you want join the Common Criteria Users Forum (CCUF) separation kernel working group for further discussion just let me know by answering to this email to my private mail. best, Holger (I'm top-posting as the original invitation has been a while ago.)
