Abstract

I’ll start as I often do with an obligatory handwave towards the theme of the workshop. This isn’t so much about bringing protocols to life as a protocol that says whether or not you are currently alive, and this is based on some thinking I’ve been doing with Robert Watson. The title is “Stayin’ Alive: Aliveness as an alternative to authentication”, because sometimes authentication is not the property that you actually want.
