Composition and integrity preservation of secure reactive systems
We consider compositional properties of reactive systems that are secure in a cryptographic sense. We follow the wellknown simulatability approach, i.e., the specification is an ...

Strong Invariants for the Efficient Construction of Machine-Checked Protocol Security Proofs
We embed an operational semantics for security protocols in the interactive theorem prover Isabelle/HOL and derive two strong protocol-independent invariants. These invariants allo...
