MITRE's experience and lessons learned in performing security test and evaluation (ST&E)
for SPADOC 4B are described. ST&E drew on contractual testing but involved extensive
government testing of the system. ST&E included testing in a representative stressed
environment and in failure situations. ST&E also involved verification of safeguards from
security disciplines other than COMPUSEC, including procedural and physical security.
