Download or read book Verifpal User Manual written by Nadim Kobeissi and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-03-02 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The security of cryptographic protocols remains as relevant as ever, with systems such as TLS and Signal being responsible for much of the Web's security guarantees. One main venue for the analysis and verification of these protocols has been automated analysis with formal verification tools, such as ProVerif, CryptoVerif and Tamarin. Indeed, these tools have led to confirming security guarantees (as well as finding attacks) in secure channel protocols, including TLS and Signal. However, formal verification in general has not managed to significantly attract a wider audience. Verifpal is new software for verifying the security of cryptographic protocols. Building upon contemporary research in symbolic formal verification, Verifpal's main aim is to appeal more to real-world practitioners, students and engineers without sacrificing comprehensive formal verification features. In order to achieve this, Verifpal introduces a new, intuitive language for modeling protocols that is much easier to write and understand than the languages employed by existing tools. At the same time, Verifpal is able to model protocols under an active attacker with unbounded sessions and fresh values, and supports queries for advanced security properties such as forward secrecy or key compromise impersonation. Verifpal has already been used to verify security properties for Signal, Scuttlebutt, TLS 1.3, Telegram and other protocols. It is a community-focused project, and available under a GPLv3 license. The Verifpal language is meant to illustrate protocols close to how one may describe them in an informal conversation, while still being precise and expressive enough for formal modeling. Verifpal reasons about the protocol model with explicit principals: Alice and Bob exist and have independent states. Easy to Understand Analysis Output When a contradiction is found for a query, the result is related in a readable format that ties the attack to a real-world scenario. This is done by using terminology to indicate how the attack could have been possible, such as through a man-in-the-middle on ephemeral keys. Friendly and Integrated Software Verifpal comes with a Visual Studio Code extension that offers syntax highlighting and, soon, live query verification within Visual Studio Code, allowing developers to obtain insights on their model as they are writing it.

Book Protocols  Strands  and Logic

Download or read book Protocols Strands and Logic written by Daniel Dougherty and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Festschrift was published in honor of Joshua Guttman on the occasion of his 66.66 birthday. The impact of his work is reflected in the 23 contributions enclosed in this volume. Joshua’s most influential and enduring contribution to the field has been the development of the strand space formalism for analyzing cryptographic protocols. It is one of several “symbolic approaches” to security protocol analysis in which the underlying details of cryptographic primitives are abstracted away, allowing a focus on potential flaws in the communication patterns between participants. His attention to the underlying logic of strand spaces has also allowed him to merge domain-specific reasoning about protocols with general purpose, first-order logical theories. The identification of clear principles in a domain paves the way to automated reasoning, and Joshua has been a leader in the development and distribution of several tools for security analysis.

Book Building the Hyperconnected Society

Download or read book Building the Hyperconnected Society written by Ovidiu Vermesan and published by River Publishers. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to provide a broad overview of various topics of Internet of Things (IoT), ranging from research, innovation and development priorities to enabling technologies, nanoelectronics, cyber-physical systems, architecture, interoperability and industrial applications. All this is happening in a global context, building towards intelligent, interconnected decision making as an essential driver for new growth and co-competition across a wider set of markets. It is intended to be a standalone book in a series that covers the Internet of Things activities of the IERC – Internet of Things European Research Cluster from research to technological innovation, validation and deployment. The book builds on the ideas put forward by the European Research Cluster on the Internet of Things Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda, and presents global views and state of the art results on the challenges facing the research, innovation, development and deployment of IoT in future years. The concept of IoT could disrupt consumer and industrial product markets generating new revenues and serving as a growth driver for semiconductor, networking equipment, and service provider end-markets globally. This will create new application and product end-markets, change the value chain of companies that creates the IoT technology and deploy it in various end sectors, while impacting the business models of semiconductor, software, device, communication and service provider stakeholders. The proliferation of intelligent devices at the edge of the network with the introduction of embedded software and app-driven hardware into manufactured devices, and the ability, through embedded software/hardware developments, to monetize those device functions and features by offering novel solutions, could generate completely new types of revenue streams. Intelligent and IoT devices leverage software, software licensing, entitlement management, and Internet connectivity in ways that address many of the societal challenges that we will face in the next decade.

This book is designed to address anyone who is just above the “raw beginner” level. This book will explain some basic process such as entering commands and execute simple code instructions using a Command-Line- Interface (CLI) instead of using high resource-intensive Graphical User Interfaces (GUI). You may review some basic definitions and concepts, or skip directly to the working Formulas, as you'll prefer. It is a book intended for both the beginner and the expert developer, but suitable also for creatives, social media managers, webmasters, writers, musicians, photographers, video-makers, audio engineers, archival and restoration technicians, radio/tv broadcasters, streamers, You-Tubers, etc. and anyone who needs to automate and speed-up the manipulation, editing and conversion of many different audio/video/pictures formats. What's the difference between this book and other basic books about FFMPEG? FFMPEG has a pretty steep learning curve and the books currently around lacks on the very basics terms and syntax explanations of the commands. This book contains lots of explanations about the basic BASH terms, which unleash the functionalities and the true power of FFMPEG. Also: this book will cover other great tools for content creation, editing and automation, such as ImageMagick, Bento4, Ghostscript along with scripting automation formulas and examples. Why a book on the basics of FFMPEG? Because FFMPEG can be powerful and can be very easy for anyone, once it's core technology and syntax are understood. If you would like to know more about a ultra-fast way that gives you for free the same results that you achieve with expensive subscription-based softwares for content creation/video editing/image or audio manipulation/conversion, then this is the right book for you.
