The EU-funded CCAT project is transitioning academic security tools from lab prototypes to professional-grade software. Because poor usability often leads to crypto misuse and security failures, we are conducting usability research to ensure these tools fit real-world workflows. We invite attendees to test these prototypes and help shape their development.
The CCAT toolset:
1. TLS-Scanner (2016–Present): a tool for checking the settings of TLS clients and servers. Target users: security solution providers.
2. SCRUTINY (2006–Present): a toolset for assessing cryptographic implementations in hardware devices (smartcards, TPM, etc.) and software libraries. Target users: crypto-evaluation specialists
3. sec-certs (2022–Present): an analysis tool for the CC, FIPS 140, and EUCC landscapes, mapping the relationships between certification documents and products. Target users: vendors, authorities, and certificate consumers.
