N2  - We present STA (Symbolic Trace Analyzer). a tool for the analysis
of security protocols. STA relies on symbolic techniques that avoid
explicit construction of the whole, possibly infinite, state-space of
protocols. This results in accurate protocol modeling, increased
efficiency and mere direct formalization, when compared to finitestate
techniques. We illustrate the use of STA by analyzing the
well-known asymmetric Needham Schroeder protocol. We discuss
the results of this analysis, and contrast them with previous work
based on finite-state model checking.
