Protocols, Strands, and Logic
This Festschrift was published in honor of Joshua Guttman on the occasion of his 66.66 birthday. The impact of his work is reflected in the 23 contributions enclosed in this volume. Joshua's most influential and enduring contribution to the field has been the development of the strand space formalism for analyzing cryptographic protocols. It is one of several "symbolic approaches" to security protocol analysis in which the underlying details of cryptographic primitives are abstracted away, allowing a focus on potential flaws in the communication patterns between participants. His attention to the underlying logic of strand spaces has also allowed him to merge domain-specific reasoning about protocols with general purpose, first-order logical theories. The identification of clear principles in a domain paves the way to automated reasoning, and Joshua has been a leader in the development and distribution of several tools for security analysis.

The EU Data Protection Code of Conduct for Cloud Service Providers
The EU Data Protection Code of Conduct for Cloud Service Providers - A guide to complianceFormally founded in 2017, the EU Data Protection Code of Conduct for Cloud Service Providers (otherwise known as the EU Cloud Code of Conduct; the Code) is a voluntary code of conduct created specifically to support GDPR compliance within the B2B (business-to-business) Cloud industry. The EU Commission, the Article 29 Working Party (now the European Data Protection Board (EDPB)), the EU Directorate-General for Justice and Consumers, and Cloud-industry leaders have all contributed to its development, resulting in a robust framework that recognises the unique requirements of the Cloud industry.Cloud providers must ensure that their services - which by design involve accessing and transferring data across the Internet, exposing it to far greater risk than data stored and processed within an organisation's internal network - meet or exceed the GDPR's requirements in order to provide the security and privacy that the market expects. Organisations can achieve this via compliance to the EU Cloud Code of Conduct. The EU Cloud Code of Conduct has already been adopted by major Cloud service organisations, including: Microsoft;Oracle; Salesforce;IBM;Google Cloud;Dropbox; and Alibaba Cloud.Public and business focus on information security and data protection continues to increase in the face of a constantly changing threat landscape and ever-more stringent regulation, and compliance to initiatives such as the EU Cloud Code of Conduct demonstrates to current and potential customers that your organisation is taking data privacy seriously, as well as strengthens your organisation's overall approach to information security management, and defences against data breaches. The EU Data Protection Code of Conduct for Cloud Service Providers provides guidance on how to implement the Code within your organisation. It explores the objectives of the Code, and how compliance can be achieved with or without a pre-existing ISMS (information security management system) within the organisation.
