eDocument Physical Security Evaluation Model (eSEC)
The eDocument Scheme for Evaluating Physical Security (eSEC) is designed to help governments develop secure eDocuments. It can be used as a self-assessment tool to evaluate the physical security of current documents, the security impact of additional design changes, or simply to understand what is required to build a ‘secure eDocument’.
THE TOOL IS CURRENTLY UNDER RE-DEVELOPMENT
This eSEC self-evaluation is done by:
> Selecting the document type
> Listing security features from a database
> Answering questions about the design process
The resulting score is weighted based on:
> How widely security features are distributed to different parts of the document
> How strongly the document is protected against different attacks
> How well different security feature levels are distributed within the document
> The design process of the overall document
The evaluation results in a score, rather than pass/fail.
A Management Report with recommendations on how to improve security in the document is also supplied.
