%0 Journal Article %T Proving Security Goals With Shape Analysis Sentences %A John D. Ramsdell %J Computer Science %D 2014 %I arXiv %X The paper that introduced shape analysis sentences presented a method for extracting a sentence in first-order logic that completely characterizes a run of CPSA. Logical deduction can then be used to determine if a security goal is satisfied. This paper presents a method for importing shape analysis sentences into a proof assistant on top of a detailed theory of strand spaces. The result is a semantically rich environment in which the validity of a security goal can be determined using shape analysis sentences and the foundation on which they are based. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1403.3563v1
