Reasoning About Privacy Properties of Architectures Supporting Group Authentication and Application to Biometric Systems
Abstract
This paper follows a recent line of work that advocates the use of formal methods to reason about privacy properties of system architectures. We propose an extension of an existing formal framework, motivated by the need to reason about properties of architectures including group authentication functionalities. By group authentication, we mean that a user can authenticate on behalf of a group of users, thereby keeping a form of anonymity within this set. Then we show that this extended framework can be used to reason about privacy properties of a biometric system in which users are authenticated through the use of group signatures.
