Automated Verification of Equivalence on Quantum Cryptographic Protocols

It is recognized that security verification of cryptographic protocols tends to be difficult and in fact, some flaws on protocol designs or security proofs were found after they had been presented. The use of formal methods is a way to deal with such complexity. Especially, process calculi are suitable to describe parallel systems. Bisimilarity, which denotes that two processes behave indisting...

automatic verification of authentication protocols using genetic programming

implicit and unobserved errors and vulnerabilities issues usually arise in cryptographic protocols and especially in authentication protocols. this may enable an attacker to make serious damages to the desired system, such as having the access to or changing secret documents, interfering in bank transactions, having access to users’ accounts, or may be having the control all over the syste...

Formal verification of cryptographic protocols with automated reasoning

Cryptographic protocols form the backbone of our digital society. Unfortunately, the security of numerous critical components has been neglected. As a consequence, attacks have resulted in financial loss, violations of personal privacy, and threats to democracy. This thesis aids the secure design of cryptographic protocols and facilitates the evaluation of existing schemes. Developing a secure ...

Type-Based Automated Verification of Authenticity in Cryptographic Protocols

Gordon and Jeffrey have proposed a type and effect system for checking authenticity in cryptographic protocols. The type system reduces the protocol verification problem to the type checking problem, but protocols must be manually annotated with non-trivial types and effects. To automate the verification of cryptographic protocols, we modify Gordon and Jeffrey’s type system and develop a type i...
