Verification of Security Systems

  29 In considering the question of how detailed the verification of security systems would have to be, the Committee confirmed that for all technical equipment, specified in the SSP, 100% verification was necessary, while for all operational (non-technical) security measures a sample audit would be sufficient, to the level necessary for the auditor to verify the whole operating system.
