Book Description
In this book the author introduces a novel approach to securing exam systems. He provides an in-depth understanding, useful for studying the security of exams and similar systems, such as public tenders, personnel selections, project reviews, and conference management systems. After a short chapter that explains the context and objectives of the book, in Chap. 2 the author introduces terminology for exams and the foundations required to formulate their security requirements. He describes the tasks that occur during an exam, taking account of the levels of detail and abstraction of an exam specification and the threats that arise out of the different exam roles. He also presents a taxonomy that classifies exams by types and categories. Chapter 3 contains formal definitions of the authentication, privacy, and verifiability requirements for exams, a framework based on the applied pi-calculus for the specification of authentication and privacy, and a more abstract approach based on set-theory that enables the specification of verifiability. Chapter 4 describes the Huszti-Pethő protocol in detail and proposes a security enhancement. In Chap. 5 the author details Remark!, a protocol for Internet-based exams, discussing its cryptographic building blocks and some security considerations. Chapter 6 focuses on WATA, a family of computer-assisted exams that employ computer assistance while keeping face-to-face testing. The chapter also introduces formal definitions of accountability requirements and details the analysis of a WATA protocol against such definitions. In Chaps. 4, 5, and 6 the author uses the cryptographic protocol verifier ProVerif for the formal analyses. Finally, the author outlines future work in Chap. 7. The book is valuable for researchers and graduate students in the areas of information security, in particular for people engaged with exams or protocols.

Book Description
This volume contains the workshopproceedings of the accompanying workshops of the 14th Financial Cryptograpy and Data Security International Conference 2010, held on Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain, January 25-28, 2010. FinancialCryptographyandData Securityis a majorinternationalforumfor research, advanced development, education, exploration, and debate regarding information assurance, with a speci?c focus on commercial contexts. The c- ference covers all aspects of securing transactions and systems and especially encourages original work focusing on both fundamental and applied real-world deployments on all aspects surrounding commerce security. Three workshops were co-located with FC 2010: the Workshop on Real-Life CryptographicProtocolsandStandardization(RLCPS),theWorkshoponEthics in Computer Security Research (WECSR), and the Workshop on Lightweight Cryptography for Resource-Constrained Devices (WLC). Intimate and colorful by tradition, the high-quality program was not the only attraction of FC. In the past, FC conferences have been held in highly research-synergistic locations such as Tobago, Anguilla, Dominica, Key West, Guadelupe, Bermuda, the Grand Cayman, and Cozumel Mexico. 2010 was the ?rst year that the conference was held on European soil, in the Spanish Canary Islands, in Atlantic waters, a few miles across Morocco. Over 100 researchers from more than 20 countries were in attendance.
