Abstract. We propose a new type discipline for the -calculus in which secure information flow is guaranteed by static type checking. Secrecy levels are assigned to channels and are...
We adapt the Strand Spaces model to reason abstractly about layered security protocols, where an Application Layer protocol ed on top of a secure transport protocol. The model abst...
Abstract. Ever-growing mobility and ubiquitous wireless Internet access raise the need for secure communication with devices that may be severely constrained in terms of processing...
Initiating and bootstrapping secure, yet low-cost, ad-hoc transactions is an important challenge that needs to be overcome if the promise of mobile and pervasive computing is to b...
We propose a development method for security protocols based on stepwise refinement. Our refinement strategy guides sformation of abstract security goals into protocols that are s...
