Prools for authentication and key establishment are the foundation for security of communications. The range and diversity of these prools is immense, while the properties and vulnerabilities of different prools can vary greatly.
This is the first comprehensive and integrated treatment of these prools. It allows researchers and practitioners to quickly access a prool for their needs and become aware of existing prools which have been broken in the literature.
As well as a clear and uniform presentation of the prools this book includes a description of all the main attack types and classifies most prools in terms of their properties and resource requirements. It also includes tutorial material suitable for graduate students.
