The structural criteria are limited to general and mission-oriented criteria and are not configuration specific. Care was taken to ensure that the criteria will not restrict configuration development and will not establish the overall risk level. In some instances, margins of confidence are indicated, not only because experience shows them to be necessary but also because technology now permits quantitative values to be established.
