A TSS has to be certified with the BSI — the Federal Cyber Security Authority of Germany — in order to meet the requirements of KassenSichV.
fiskaly was the first company to have been issued a certification id by the BSI in 2019 for the SMAERS component. During the certification process, there were numerous adaptations, iterations and major improvements to the technical requirements of building a cloud TSS.
The following certificates have to be achieved:
TSS Application — The composite TSS application certification
Protocol Unit — Security Module Application for Electronic Record-Keeping Systems
Signature Creation Unit — Cryptographic Service Provider for digital signature creation
Background
Section titled “Background”The requirements for the safety module are defined in a technology-independent protection profile according to ISO/IEC 15408 (Common Criteria, CC). To meet these requirements, manufacturers must have their technical devices certified by the BSI. The aim of certification is to ensure a standard minimum level of trust and security from all TSSs and compliance with the necessary interoperability requirements.
