Probabilistic annotations for protocol models (2108.03901v1)

Abstract: We describe how a probabilistic Hoare logic with localities can be used for reasoning about security. As a proof-of-concept, we analyze Vernam and El-Gamal cryptosystems, prove the security properties that they do satisfy and disprove those that they do not. We also consider a version of the Muddy Children puzzle, where children's trust and noise are taken into account.
