Formally Verifying Everybody's Cryptography

Formally Verifying Everybody's Cryptography

Explore formal verification of cryptographic libraries in this conference talk from Strange Loop 2022. Learn how mathematical reasoning can prove code security and bug-free status in real-world cryptographic systems. Discover the application of formal verification to production cryptography, its cost-effectiveness as an assurance tool, and lessons for securing other software systems. Delve into the threat model for cryptographic primitives, understand the challenges and benefits of verifying cryptography, and examine practical examples such as SHA 384 rewrites. Gain insights into cumulative correctness planning and the power of code changes during formal verification processes.
