demise of AMA?


Title: demise of AMA?

Is it true that there are no longer any AMA (assurance maintenance) requirements at the international or US level? They seem to have been completely removed from v2.2 of CC Part 3 and I can no longer find CCIMB-2003-02-001 (Supplement: AMA) anywhere.

We now seem to be left with CCIMB-2004-02-009 ("Assurance Continuity: CCRA Requirements)?? This document seems to contain much less on the detailed nuts-and-bolts than the presumably defunct documents mentioned above. And there are a couple of profiles I see that seem to include some of the old AMA requirements.

The Assurance Continuity document indicates that a national scheme can have additional requirements, but I haven't seen any.

Does the US scheme envision that AMA-type requirements would be any different at EAL5 than at lower EALs?

Thanks.
