The National Security Agency (NSA) with the cooperation of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) formed a technical group to create security requirements for distributed systems. These include requirements for data confidentiality, data integrity, cryptography, distributed identification and authentication, as well as for access control, auditing, system management, trusted path, and trusted recovery for distributed systems. These requirements are being reviewed for incorporation within the Common Criteria, which is a joint effort of the United States (NSA and NIST), Canada, France, Great Britain, and Germany to come up with a single criteria for security requirements.
