• security profiles;
• implementation conformance statement provides a checklist to be used by an equipment supplier, a system implementation, or an actor of a role declaring his conformity to ISO/TS 19299:2015;
• general information security objectives of the stakeholders which provide a basic motivation for the security requirements;
• threat analysis on the EFC system model and its assets using two different complementary methods, an attack-based analysis, and an asset-based analysis;
