A protection profile for TASE.2
This document represents the development of a protection profile (PP) for the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) protocol TASE.2 (Tele-control Application Service Element.2). A protection profile states assumptions about the TOE (Target of Evaluation), identifies threats to the TOE based on the assumptions, gives security goals to counter the threats, and finally identifies security functions to satisfy the security goals. Developing protection profiles for each protocol is a significant step towards developing measurable security for electric power automation systems. As an extension of the PP, the authors offer a generalization to any protocol at the evaluation assurance level (EAL) 2.
