The only constraint we place on the class is a notion of depth-boundedness. +Precisely we prove that, restricted to messages of up to a given size, secrecy is decidable for all depth-bounded processes. +This decidable fragment of security protocols captures many real-world symmetric key protocols, including Needham-Schroeder Symmetric Key, +Otway-Rees, and Yahalom. + +CSF'17 is an annual conference for researchers in computer security, to examine current theories of security, +the formal models that provide a context for those theories, and techniques for verifying security. +Originally a workshop of the [IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committee on Security and Privacy](http://www.ieee-security.org/), +the meeting became a “symposium†in 2007, with a number of important papers and techniques having been presented first at CSF. +This year's papers are now available on the [CSF'17 conference's website](http://csf2017.tecnico.ulisboa.pt/accepted.html) \ No newline at end of file
