Abstract
We consider an instance of the EMSS protocol proposed in [19], authenticating streamed data in the presence of packet loss. We formally prove the integrity property of the instance by applying a compositional proof rule that allows us to check a specification with an arbitrary number of parallel processes. We argue that our approach may be applied to a wider class of stream signature protocols.
