This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Formal Aspects of Security and Trust, FAST 2010, held as part of the 8th IEEE International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods, SEFM 2010 in Pisa, Italy in September 2010. The 14 revised full papers presented together with one invited paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 submissions. The papers focus of formal aspects in security and trust policy models, security protocol design and analysis, formal models of trust and reputation, logics for security and trust, distributed trust management systems, trust-based reasoning, digital assets protection, data protection, privacy and id issues, information flow analysis, language-based security, security and trust aspects in ubiquitous computing, validation/analysis tools, web service security/trust/privacy, grid security, security risk assessment, and case studies.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Formal Aspects of Security and Trust, FAST 2011, held in conjunction with the 16th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security, ESORICS 2011, in Leuven, Belgium in September 2011. The 15 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 submissions. The papers focus on security and trust policy models; security protocol design and analysis; formal models of trust and reputation; logics for security and trust; distributed trust management systems; trust-based reasoning; digital assets protection; data protection; privacy and ID issues; information flow analysis; language-based security; security and trust aspects of ubiquitous computing; validation/analysis tools; web service security/trust/privacy; grid security; security risk assessment; and case studies.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Formal Aspects in Security and Trust, FAST 2008, held under the auspices of IFIP WG 1.7 in Malaga, Spain, in October 2008 as a satellite event of 13th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security. The 20 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 59 submissions. The papers focus of formal aspects in security, trust and reputation, security protocol design and analysis, logics for security and trust, trust-based reasoning, distributed trust management systems, digital asset protection, data protection, privacy and id management issues, information flow analysis, language-based security, security and trust aspects in ubiquitous computing, validation/analysis tools, Web/grid services security/trust/privacy, security and risk assessment, resource and access control, as well as case studies.

Second International Workshop on Formal Aspects in Security and Trust is an essential reference for both academic and professional researchers in the field of security and trust. Because of the complexity and scale of deployment of emerging ICT systems based on web service and grid computing concepts, we also need to develop new, scalable, and more flexible foundational models of pervasive security enforcement across organizational borders and in situations where there is high uncertainty about the identity and trustworthiness of the participating networked entites. On the other hand, the increasingly complex set of building activities sharing different resources but managed with different policies calls for new and business-enabling models of trust between members of virtual organizations and communities that span the boundaries of physical enterprises and loosely structured groups of individuals. The papers presented in this volume address the challenges posed by "ambient intelligence space" as a future paradigm and the need for a set of concepts, tools and methodologies to enable the user's trust and confidence in the underlying computing infrastructure. This state-of-the-art volume presents selected papers from the 2nd International Workshop on Formal Aspects in Security and Trust, held in conjuuctions with the 18th IFIP World Computer Congress, August 2004, in Toulouse, France. The collection will be important not only for computer security experts and researchers but also for teachers and adminstrators interested in security methodologies and research.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 17th International Workshop on Security and Trust Management, STM 2021, co-located with the 26th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security, ESORICS 2021. The conference was planned to take place in Darmstadt, Germany. It was held online on October 8, 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 10 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions. They were organized in topical sections on applied cryptography; privacy; formal methods for security and trust; and systems security.

This open access book constitutes the proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Principles of Security and Trust, POST 2019, which took place in Prague, Czech Republic, in April 2019, held as part of the European Joint Conference on Theory and Practice of Software, ETAPS 2019. The 10 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. They deal with theoretical and foundational aspects of security and trust, including on new theoretical results, practical applications of existing foundational ideas, and innovative approaches stimulated by pressing practical problems.

In today's hyper-connected society, understanding the mechanisms of trust is crucial. Issues of trust are critical to solving problems as diverse as corporate responsibility, global warming, and the political system. In this insightful and entertaining book, Schneier weaves together ideas from across the social and biological sciences to explain how society induces trust. He shows the unique role of trust in facilitating and stabilizing human society. He discusses why and how trust has evolved, why it works the way it does, and the ways the information society is changing everything.
