Potential bugs include bugs in parsing documents, in signature checking, in checking trust lists, and in the logical evaluation of the policy. This paper focuses on the latter kind of problems and our idea is to validate the logical steps of the trust decision by another, complementary method. We have implemented this for the Trust Policy Language of the LIGHTest project and we use the completely independently developed FOL theorem prover RP_X as a complementary method.enTrust policiesAccountabilitySecurityLogicTheorem ProverIsabelleeIDASAccountable Trust Decisions: A Semantic ApproachText/Conference Paper10.18420/ois2020_061617-5468
