-**[REQ-TECH-2]** When privileged information is transferred or accessed, a secure channel shall be used in transport [5.2.1 Secure channel].
For medium risk:
-**[REQ-TECH-4]** The product shall be designed in a way that [5.2.2 Cryptographic key intialisation and rotation] is made possilbe.
-**[REQ-TECH-5]** All system components shall be synchronised to the same time that is acceptable for the system accuracy.
For high risk:
-**[REQ-TECH-6]** All system time drifts shall be monitored.
-**[REQ-TECH-7]** The product shall be designed in a way, that all cryptographic keys can be replaced with user controlled keys.
> Note: REQ-TECH-7 wording is not limited to 'user accessible and controllable' cryptographic keying, but implements the ability for the system user to achieve sovereignty.
### 5.2.1 Secure channel
A **secure channel** referred in [REQ-TECH-2] and used in transportation is a cryptographically protected communication channel, that may be implemented with TLS.
