Our goal is to certify absence of information leaks in multi-agent workflows, such as conference management systems like EasyChair. These workflows can be executed by any number of agents some of which may form coalitions against the system. Therefore, checking noninterference is a challenging problem.

Our paper offers two main contributions: First, a technique is provided to translate noninterference (in presence of various agent capabilities and declassification conditions) into universally quantified invariants of an instrumented new workflow program. Second, general techniques are developed for checking and inferring universally quantified inductive invariants for workflow programs. In particular, a large class of workflows is identified where inductiveness of invariants is decidable, as well as a smaller, still useful class of workflows where the weakest inductive universal invariant implying the desired invariant, is effectively computable. The new algorithms are implemented and applied to certify noninterference for workflows arising from conference management systems.
