Communication is one of the key technologies of modern society. As we turn more and more to electronic communication, questions such as confidentiality of the information exchange and trust in origin of messages come to the foreground. Today our communication networks are protected by cryptographic methods that seem to be very powerful. However, they depend on assumptions that have to be checked again and again over time. Our research aims at changing this picture.

通信是现代社会的关键技术之一。随着我们越来越多地转向电子通信，诸如信息交换的保密性和对消息来源的信任等问题变得突出。今天，我们的通信网络受到加密方法的保护，这些方法似乎非常强大。然而，它们依赖于必须随着时间的推移一次又一次地检查的假设。我们的研究旨在改变这一局面。
