CSA ISO/IEC 24759:26

CSA Preface Standards development within the Information Technology sector is harmonized with international standards development. Through the CSA Technical Committee on Information Technology (TCIT), Canadians serve as the SCC Mirror Committee (SMC) on ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 on Information Technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) for the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), the ISO member body for Canada and sponsor of the Canadian National Committee of the IEC. For brevity, this Standard will be referred to as "CSA ISO/IEC 24759" throughout. This Standard supersedes CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 24759:18 (adopted ISO/IEC 24759:2017). The International Standard was reviewed by the CSA Technical Committee on Cybersecurity under the jurisdiction of the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Information and Communications Technology and deemed acceptable for use in Canada. This Standard has been formally approved, without modification, by the Technical Committee and has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group. Scope This document specifies the methods to be used by testing laboratories to test whether the cryptographic module conforms to the requirements specified in ISO/IEC 19790:2025. The methods are developed to provide a high degree of objectivity during the testing process and to ensure consistency across the testing laboratories. This document also specifies the information that vendors are required to provide testing laboratories as supporting evidence to demonstrate their cryptographic modules’ conformity to the requirements specified in ISO/IEC 19790:2025. Vendors can also use this document to verify whether their cryptographic modules satisfy the requirements specified in ISO/IEC 19790:2025 before applying to a testing laboratory for testing.
