Popis: This paper formalises the security of programmable secure computation focusing on simplifying security proofs of new algorithms for existing computation frameworks. Security of the frameworks is usually well established but the security proofs of the algorithms are often more intuitive than rigorous. This work specifies a transformation from the usual hybrid execution model to an abstract model that is closer to the intuition. We establish various preconditions that are satisfied by natural secure computation frameworks and protocols, thus showing that mostly the intuitive proofs suffice. More elaborate protocols might still need additional proof details.
