Secure compilation is a discipline aimed at developing compilers that preserve the security
properties of the source programs they take as input in the target programs they produce as …

Attacks against computer systems can cause considerable economic or physical damage.
High-quality development of security-critical systems is difficult, mainly because of the …

Good programming languages provide helpful abstractions for writing secure code, but the
security properties of the source language are generally not preserved when compiling a …

In these notes, we give an overview of the join calculus, its semantics, and its equational
theory. The join calculus is a language that models distributed and mobile programming. It is …

Frequently, communication between two principals reveals their identities and presence to
third parties. These privacy breaches can occur even if security protocols are in use; indeed …

Many tools allow programmers to develop applications in high-level languages and deploy
them in web browsers via compilation to JavaScript. While practical and widely used, these …

We propose a new formal criterion for evaluating secure compilation schemes for unsafe
languages, expressing end-to-end security guarantees for software components that may …

Channels are an abstraction of the many concrete techniques to enforce particular
properties of message transmissions such as encryption. We consider here three basic …

The area of secure compilation aims to design compilers which produce hardened code that
can withstand attacks from low-level co-linked components. So far, there is no formal …

In these lecture notes, we give an overview of concurrent, distributed, and mobile
programming using JoCaml. JoCaml is an extension of the Objective Caml language. It …
