A Declarative Framework for Security: Secure Concurrent Constraint Programming

International audienceDue to technological advances such as the Internet and mobile computing, Security has become a serious challenge involving several disciplines of Computer Science. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the analysis of security protocols and one promising approach is the development of formalisms that model communicating processes, in particular Process Calculi. The results are so far encouraging although most remains to be done. In this paper we report our observations and preliminary work on CCP as a framework for security protocols
