# Tizen Certification Coordinator Skill

**Category**: tizen-infrastructure
**Author**: Tizen Community
**Source**: tizen/security
**License**: Apache-2.0

## Description

Orchestrates Tizen certification workflow. Coordinates TCT test execution, compliance verification, and certification documentation.

## When to Use

This is a Tizen security/IoT skill. Use when:
- Developing Tizen applications (web, native, .NET)
- Auditing Tizen app security
- Provisioning TizenRT/ARTIK IoT devices
- Implementing Tizen compliance
- Analyzing SMACK policies or Cynara access control

## Tizen Security Model

### SMACK (Simplified Mandatory Access Control Kernel)
- Linux kernel 3.12+ mandatory access control
- Process isolation via labels
- Prevent inter-app resource access

### Cynara
- Fast privilege access control service
- Policy-based permission checking
- External agent integration

### KeyManager
- Central secure storage repository
- Password-protected data access
- Certificate and key management

### Tizen Manifest
- Privilege declarations (public, partner, platform)
- App sandboxing configuration
- Resource access specifications

Overview

This skill orchestrates the Tizen certification workflow and streamlines test execution, compliance checks, and documentation generation. It coordinates TCT test runs, verifies SMACK/Cynara/manifest compliance, and assembles artifacts needed for certification. The skill targets developers, security engineers, and device integrators working with Tizen and TizenRT.

How this skill works

The coordinator invokes TCT test suites, collects test results, and maps failures to specific compliance rules. It parses Tizen manifests, inspects SMACK labels and Cynara policies, and verifies KeyManager usage and certificate presence. Finally, it compiles a certification dossier that includes test logs, compliance reports, and recommended remediations.

When to use it

  • Preparing an app or device build for official Tizen certification
  • Running repeatable regression tests after security or permission changes
  • Auditing app privileges, SMACK labels, or Cynara permissions
  • Provisioning IoT devices (TizenRT/ARTIK) before deployment
  • Integrating certification steps into CI/CD pipelines

Best practices

  • Run full TCT suites on representative hardware to surface device-specific issues
  • Keep Tizen manifest privilege declarations minimal and documented
  • Version-control policies and manifest files so the coordinator can produce reproducible reports
  • Automate certificate and key checks using KeyManager integrations to avoid manual errors
  • Treat coordinator reports as actionable artifacts: prioritize fixes by severity and reproducibility

Example use cases

  • Automate nightly TCT runs and produce a compliance report for the QA team
  • Validate SMACK label changes after a sandboxing refactor and generate remediation tasks
  • Confirm Cynara policy updates don’t break required permissions before rolling to production
  • Bundle test results, manifest verification, and certificates into a single certification packet for submission
  • Gate CI pipelines so builds cannot progress unless coordinator confirms required compliance checks

FAQ

Does the coordinator replace manual testing?

No. It automates orchestration and verification but complements manual security review and on-device exploratory testing.

Which components does it inspect for compliance?

It inspects Tizen manifests, SMACK labels, Cynara policies, KeyManager usage, certificates, and TCT test results to provide a holistic compliance assessment.
