FOSAD has been one of the foremost educational events established with the goal of disseminating knowledge in the critical area of security in computer systems and networks. Over the years, both the summer school and the book series have represented a reference point for graduate students and young researchers from academia and industry, interested to approach the field, investigate open problems, and follow priority lines of research. This book presents thoroughly revised versions of four tutorial lectures given by leading researchers during three International Schools on Foundations of Security Analysis and Design, FOSAD, held in Bertinoro, Italy, in September 2014, 2015 and 2016. The topics covered in this book include zero-knowledge proof systems, JavaScript sandboxing, assessment of privacy, and distributed authorization.

Mathematical Models of Computer Security (Peter Y.A. Ryan); The Logic of Authentication Protocols (Paul Syversen and Iliano Cervesato); Access Control: Policies, Models, and Mechanisms (Pierangela Samarati and Sabrina de Capitani di Vimercati); Security Goals: Packet Trajectories and Strand Spaces (Joshua D. Guttman); Notes on Nominal Calculi for Security and Mobility (Andrew D. Gordon); Classification of Security Properties (Riccardo Focardi and Roberto Gorrieri).
This book presents tutorial lectures from three International Schools on Foundations of Security Analysis and Design, FOSAD 2007/2008/2009. Topics include cryptographic protocol analysis, identity management and electronic voting, and wireless security.
The increasing relevance of security to real-life applications, such as electronic commerce, is attested by the fast-growing number of research groups, events, conferences, and summer schools that are studying it. This book presents thoroughly revised versions of eight tutorial lectures given by leading researchers during two International Schools on Foundations of Security Analysis and Design, FOSAD 2006/2007, held in Bertinoro, Italy, in September 2006 and September 2007.
FOSAD has been one of the foremost educational events established with the goal of disseminating knowledge in the critical area of security in computer systems and networks. Over the years, both the summer school and the book series have represented a reference point for graduate students and young researchers from academia or industry, interested to approach the field, investigate open problems, and follow priority lines of research. This book presents thoroughly revised versions of nine tutorial lectures given by leading researchers during three International Schools on Foundations of Security Analysis and Design, FOSAD, held in Bertinoro, Italy, in September 2012 and 2013. The topics covered in this book include model-based security, automatic verification of secure applications, information flow analysis, cryptographic voting systems, encryption in the cloud, and privacy preservation.
FOSAD has been one of the foremost educational events established with the goal of disseminating knowledge in the critical area of security in computer systems and networks. Offering a timely spectrum of current research in foundations of security, FOSAD also proposes panels dedicated to topical open problems, and giving presentations about ongoing work in the field, in order to stimulate discussions and novel scientific collaborations. This book presents thoroughly revised versions of nine tutorial lectures given by leading researchers during three International Schools on Foundations of Security Analysis and Design, FOSAD, held in Bertinoro, Italy, in September 2010 and August/September 2011. The topics covered in this book include privacy and data protection; security APIs; cryptographic verification by typing; model-driven security; noninterfer-quantitative information flow analysis; and risk analysis.
This book discusses smart, agile software development methods and their applications for enterprise crisis management, presenting a systematic approach that promotes agility and crisis management in software engineering. The key finding is that these crises are caused by both technology-based and human-related factors. Being mission-critical, human-related issues are often neglected. To manage the crises, the book suggests an efficient agile methodology including a set of models, methods, patterns, practices and tools. Together, these make a survival toolkit for large-scale software development in crises. Further, the book analyses lifecycles and methodologies focusing on their impact on the project timeline and budget, and incorporates a set of industry-based patterns, practices and case studies, combining academic concepts and practices of software engineering.
The increasing relevance of security to real-life applications, such as electronic commerce and Internet banking, is attested by the fast-growing number of - search groups, events, conferences, and summer schools that address the study of foundations for the analysis and the design of security aspects. The “Int- national School on Foundations of Security Analysis and Design” (FOSAD, see http://www.sti.uniurb.it/events/fosad/)has been one of the foremost events - tablishedwiththegoalofdisseminatingknowledgeinthiscriticalarea,especially for young researchers approaching the ?eld and graduate students coming from less-favoured and non-leading countries. The FOSAD school is held annually at the Residential Centre of Bertinoro (http://www.ceub.it/), in the fascinating setting of a former convent and ep- copal fortress that has been transformed into a modern conference facility with computing services and Internet access. Since the ?rst school, in 2000, FOSAD hasattractedmorethan250participantsand50lecturersfromallovertheworld. A collection of tutorial lectures from FOSAD 2000 was published in Springer’s LNCS volume 2171. Some of the tutorials given at the two successive schools (FOSAD 2001 and 2002) are gathered in a second volume, LNCS 2946. To c- tinue this tradition, the present volume collects a set of tutorials fromthe fourth FOSAD, held in 2004, and from FOSAD 2005.
Security and Dependability for Ambient Intelligence is the primary publication of the SERENITY approach, which provides security and dependability (S&D) solutions for dynamic, highly distributed, heterogeneous systems. The objective of SERENITY is to enhance the security and dependability of ambient intelligence systems by providing a framework supporting the automated integration, configuration, monitoring and adaptation of security and dependability mechanisms. An edited volume contributed by world leaders in the field, this book covers the problems that the highly dynamic and heterogeneous nature of ambient intelligence systems poses to security and dependability and presents solutions to these problems. Security and Dependability for Ambient Intelligence is designed for researchers and practitioners focusing on the dynamic integration, deployment and verification of security and dependability solutions in highly distributed systems incorporating ambient intelligence features. It is also suitable as a reference or secondary text for advanced-level students in computer science and computer or electrical engineering.
