C3PO: A Tool for Automatic Sound Cryptographic Protocol Analysis
In this paper we present an improved logic for analysing authentication properties of cryptographic protocols, based on the SVO logic of Syverson and van Oorschot. Such logics are...

Sealing OS processes to improve dependability and safety
In most modern operating systems, a process is a -protected abstraction for isolating code and data. This protection, however, is selective. Many common mechanisms—dynamic code ...

Improving Computer Security Using Extended Static Checking
We describe a method for finding security flaws in source code by way of static analysis. The method is notable because it allows a user to specify a wide range of security proper...
