+Auth--The Inductive Approach to Verifying Security Protocols
+
+Cryptographic protocols are of major importance, especially with the
+growing use of the Internet. This directory demonstrates a new
+proof method. The operational semantics of protocol participants is
+defined inductively. The directory contains proofs concerning
+
+
+- three versions of the Otway-Rees protocol
+
+
- the Needham-Schroeder protocol (public-key
+and shared-key versions)
+
+
- two versions of the Yahalom protocol
+
+
- a novel recursive authentication protocol
