Abstract

We present a logic for analyzing cryptographic protocols. This logic encompasses a unification of four of its predecessors in the BAN family of Logics, namely those given in [GNY90], [AT91], [v093], and BAN itself [BAN89]. We also present a model-theoretic semantics with respect to which the logic is sound. The logic herein captures all of the desirable features of its predecessors and more; nonetheless, it accomplishes thiswith no more axioms or rules than the simplest of its predecessors.
