Foreword
This Technical Specification (TS) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Electronic Signatures and
Infrastructures (ESI).
The present document is part 1 of a multi-part deliverable covering policy and security requirements for Trust Service
Providers providing remote signature, as identified below:
Part 1: "TSP service components operating a remote QSCD / SCDev";
Part 2: "TSP service components supporting AdES digital signature creation".
Modal verbs terminology
In the present document "shall", "shall not", "should", "should not", "may", "need not", "will", "will not", "can" and
"cannot" are to be interpreted as described in clause 3.2 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (Verbal forms for the expression of
provisions).
"must" and "must not" are NOT allowed in ETSI deliverables except when used in direct citation.
Executive summary
The present document specifies policy and security requirements for TSP service components operating a digital
signature creation device, including a QSCD (Qualified Signature/Seal Creation Device) as defined in Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1] to create a digital signature value on behalf of a remote signer.
These requirements are based on the general policy requirements specified in ETSI EN 319 401 [1] and take into
account related requirements for certificate issuance in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2].
The requirements of the present document are aligned with the requirements specified in CEN EN 419 241-1 [3].

Introduction
When digital signatures are created in an entirely user-managed environment, it is assumed that the signature creation
data is under the control of the signer, who is physically in possession of the signature creation device.
For remote digital signature creation, the signature creation data is maintained and managed by a third party on behalf
of the signer. To guarantee that the signature creation environment is reliable and that the signature creation data is used
under the control of the signer, the provider of the remote digital signature service has to apply specific management
and administrative security procedures and use trustworthy systems and products, including secure electronic
communication channels.

1 Scope
The present document specifies generally applicable policy and security requirements for Trust Service Providers (TSP)
implementing a service component operating a remote signature creation device (SCDev). Specific requirements apply
when the device is a QSCD as defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
The service component consists of a signing application and a QSCD / SCDev. The term used in the present document
is server signing application service component (SSASC).
The policy and security requirements are defined in terms of requirements for creation, maintenance, life-cycle
management and use of signing keys used to create digital signatures.
The present document gives no restrictions on the type of TSP implementing such a component.
The present document is aimed to be used by independent bodies as the basis for a conformity assessment that a TSP
can be trusted for operating a remote QSCD / SCDev.
The present document supports European and other regulatory frameworks.
NOTE 1: Specifically, but not exclusively, the present document is aimed at qualified and non-qualified trust
service providers, providing the creation of digital signatures supporting electronic signatures and
electronic seals (both advanced and qualified) in accordance with the requirements of Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1]. Annex A contains requirements that are specific for an SSASC in the context of
Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
The present document does neither specify how fulfilment of the requirements can be assessed by an independent
conformity assessment body, nor requirements for information to be made available to such independent assessors, or
requirements on such assessors.
NOTE 2: See ETSI EN 319 403 [i.3] for guidance on assessment of a TSP's processes and services.
NOTE 3: The present document references ETSI EN 319 401 [1] for general policy requirements common to all
TSP services covered by ETSI standards.
The present document does not specify protocols used to access the SSASC.
NOTE 4: Protocols for remote digital signature creation are defined in ETSI TS 119 432 [i.4].
The present document identifies specific controls needed to address risks associated with services operating remote
QSCD / SCDev.
