  • Abstract
    A formal method for analyzing the security of cryptographic protocols is presented. This method is based on an original representation of the participants´ knowledge. The author proves the probabilistic properties of the cryptographic protocols and models the possible attacks on these protocols. This method is applied to well-known protocols like the Kerberos authentication protocol and the X.509 standard
