Abstract
We believe that to date the use of fault tolerance within secure services has been limited to the scope of replicating services. We demonstrate that controlling state within a protocol execution can be a useful abstraction of fault tolerance within a secure environment, and this can lead to more widespread use of fault tolerance within secure services.
An early version of part of this paper is contained in my PhD dissertation [14].
