In practice, failures of computer systems can arise due to hardware and software faults, but also as the result of mailicious actions initiated by an attacker of the system. While the former should be dealt with using fault-tolerance mechanismus, the latter should be addressed using approaches from computer security. Although the goals in these two areas are the same, the methodologies and paradigms for achieving them have been quite different. This research project aims at developing a joint basis for the design of algorithms for fault-tolerant and secure distributed systems.
