    Haakon Jacobsen - TBD

The Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is a widely used three-party authentication framework that allows a client to connect to a wireless access point it does not share a secret with, using a mutually trusted server. EAP is often found in enterprise networks or large organizations to provide central key-management and user authentication; one prime example being the eduroam network.<br/> In this talk I'll present a provable-security analysis of the EAP framework. Additionally, I will also cover the cryptographic handshake used within the wireless IEEE 802.11 protocol (Wi-Fi), which is very often used in combination with EAP (then usually referred to as WPA2-Enterprise).

    CryptoVerif is a security protocol verifier sound in the computational model of cryptography. It produces proofs by sequences of games, like those done manually by cryptographers. It has an automatic proof strategy and can also be guided by the user. It provides a generic method for specifying security assumptions on many cryptographic primitives, and can prove secrecy, authentication, and[…]
