Automatic Approximation for the Verification of Cryptographic Protocols
Abstract
This paper presents an approximation function developed for the verification of cryptographic protocols. The main properties of this approximation are that it can be build automatically and its computation is guaranteed to terminate unlike the Genet and Klay's one. This approximation has been used for the verification of the Needham-Schroeder, Otway-Rees and Woo Lam protocols. To be more precise, the approximation allows us to check secrecy and authenticity properties of the protocols.
