Abstract

There are many examples of parties that are seemingly in opposition working together. In this position paper, we explore this in the context of security protocols with an emphasis on how these examples might produce long-term benefits for the “good guys” and how a formal model might be used to help prescribe approaches to collaboration with the “bad guys.”
