The research of methodologies to analyze and test the security performances is not sufficient, which is one of the obstacles in design and implementation of security cryptographic system. Based on the research and development of a distributed cryptographic system, a description of the state-of-the-art of this topic is given. First, the security architecture of the distributed cryptosystem is presented. Second, potential security vulnerabilities of cryptographic system are analyzed in respect of hardware, protocol, algorithm and application as far as the basic security performance of the system is concerned. Third, the test methodologies for these security performances are proposed. Result shows that these analysis and test methodologies are practical to security testing, the above proposed methods provide a significant guidance for the research and application in security performance test for cryptographic service system.
