Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives or www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs).

ISO and IEC draw attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a) patent(s). ISO and IEC take no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO and IEC had received notice of (a) patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at www.iso.org/patents and https://patents.iec.ch. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

This document was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 31, Automatic identification and data capture techniques.

This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO/IEC 19823-10:2020), which has been technically revised.

The main change is as follows: test items have been updated to reflect changes to the over-the-air protocol.

A list of all parts in the ISO/IEC 19823 series can be found on the ISO and IEC websites.

Introduction

The ISO/IEC 29167 series describes security services that are applicable for the ISO/IEC 18000 series. The various parts of the ISO/IEC 29167 series describe crypto suites that are optional extensions to the ISO/IEC 18000 series air interfaces.

The ISO/IEC 19823 series describes conformance test methods for security service crypto suites. The ISO/IEC 19823 series is related to the ISO/IEC 18047 series, which describes the radio frequency identification device conformance test methods, in the same way as the ISO/IEC 29167 series is related to the ISO/IEC 18000 series. These relations mean that, for a product that is claimed to be conform to a pair of ISO/IEC 18000-n and ISO/IEC 29167-m, the test methods of ISO/IEC 18047-n and ISO/IEC 19823-m apply. If a product supports more than one part of the ISO/IEC 18000 series or the ISO/IEC 29167 series, all related parts of ISO/IEC 18047 and ISO/IEC 19823 apply.

The conformance parameters are:

parameters that apply directly affecting system functionality and inter-operability;
protocol including commands and replies;
nominal values and tolerances.

NOTE 1 ISO/IEC 18047-6 contains the conformance test requirements of ISO/IEC 18000-6, ISO/IEC 18000-61, ISO/IEC 18000-62, ISO/IEC 18000-63 and ISO/IEC 18000-64.

NOTE 2 Test methods for Interrogator and Tag performance are covered in the ISO/IEC 18046 series.

1 Scope

This document describes the test methods for determining conformance for the security crypto suite AES-128 defined in ISO/IEC 29167-10.

This document contains conformance tests for all mandatory and applicable optional functions.

Unless otherwise specified, the tests in this document are only applicable to radio frequency identification (RFID) Tags and Interrogators defined in the ISO/IEC 15693 series and in the ISO/IEC 18000 series using ISO/IEC 29167-10.
