چکیده

Untraceability and unreuseability are essential security properties for electronic cash protocols. Many protocols have been proposed to meet these two properties. However, most of them have not been formally proved to be untraceable and unreuseable. In this paper we propose to use the applied pi calculus as a framework for describing and analyzing electronic cash protocols, and we analyze Ferguson’s electronic cash protocol as a case study. We believe that this approach is suitable for many different electronic cash protocols.

An Open Approach for the Applied Pi Calculus

A notion of open bisimulation is proposed for the Applied Pi Calculus, which extends π-calculus in order to facilitate analyzing security protocols. Our notion is based on the labeled transition system, and takes a knowledge aware open approach to model knowledge in security protocols. It is shown to be sound to labeled bisimilarity and is a congruent relation. As a running example, we analyze ...

Verifying Properties of Electronic Voting Protocols

In this paper we report on some recent work to formally specify and verify electronic voting protocols. In particular, we use the formalism of the applied pi calculus: the applied pi calculus is a formal language similar to the pi calculus but with useful extensions for modelling cryptographic protocols. We model several important properties, namely fairness, eligibility, privacy, receipt-freen...

Analysis of an Electronic Voting Protocol in the Applied Pi Calculus

Electronic voting promises the possibility of a convenient, efficient and secure facility for recording and tallying votes in an election. Recently highlighted inadequacies of implemented systems have demonstrated the importance of formally verifying the underlying voting protocols. The applied pi calculus is a formalism for modelling such protocols, and allows us to verify properties by using ...

A Calculus for Cryptographic Protocols

We introduce the spi calculus, an extension of the pi calculus designed for describing and analyzing cryptographic protocols. We show how to use the spi calculus, particularly for studying authentication protocols. The pi calculus (without extension) suffices for some abstract protocols; the spi calculus enables us to consider cryptographic issues in more detail. We represent protocols as proce...

Symbolic Bisimulation for the Applied Pi Calculus * Stéphanie Delaune

We propose a symbolic semantics for the finite applied pi calculus.The applied pi calculus is a variant of the pi calculus with extensions formodelling cryptographic protocols. By treating inputs symbolically, oursemantics avoids potentially infinite branching of execution trees due toinputs from the environment. Correctness is maintained by associatingwith each process a se...
