Authenticated data structures provide cryptographic proofs that their answers are as accurate as the author intended, even if the data structure is maintained by a remote host. We present techniques for authenticating data structures that represent graphs and collections of geometric objects. In our model, a data structure maintained by a trusted source is mirrored at distributed directories that answer queries and provide proof of correctness. Our work has applications to the authentication of network management systems and geographic information systems. |
