This paper describes a mechanism by which an operating system kernel can determine with certainty that it is safe to execute a binary supplied by an untrusted source. The kernel r...
This paper describes recently developed policy and procedures for safety management during system acquisition within the Australian government's Defence Materiel Organisation...
Abstract. Safety policy is a collection of rules that govern the behaviour of entities such that they do not cause accidents. It has been suggested that policies in general can be ...
Abstract. Program certification techniques formally show that programs satisfy certain safety policies. They rely on the correctness of the safety policy which has to be establish...
Abstract We introduce a generic framework for proof carrying code, developed and mechanically verified in Isabelle/HOL. The framework defines and proves sound a verification con...

Abstract. We instantiate an Isabelle/HOL framework for proof carrying code to Jinja bytecode, a downsized variant of Java bytecode featuring objects, inheritance, method calls and ...
Abstract. Proof-carrying code (PCC) allows a code producer to associate to a program a machine-checkable proof of its safety. In the original approach to PCC, the safety policy inc...
