Abstract
In this talk I will describe some joint work with P. Morrissey and B. Warinschi on the SSL protocol. We attempt to show that an abstraction of the SSL protocol does provide a secure key agreement protocol, and we quantify exactly what properties are required of any subprotocol which produces the pre-master secret.
Series This talk is part of the Computer Laboratory Security Seminar series.
