Book Description
In today’s interactive network environment, where various types of organizations are eager to monitor and track Internet use, anonymity is one of the most powerful resources available to counterbalance the threat of unknown spectators and to ensure Internet privacy. Addressing the demand for authoritative information on anonymous Internet usage, Anonymous Communication Networks: Protecting Privacy on the Web examines anonymous communication networks as a solution to Internet privacy concerns. It explains how anonymous communication networks make it possible for participants to communicate with each other without revealing their identities. The book explores various anonymous communication networks as possible solutions to Internet privacy concerns—making it ideal for network researchers and anyone interested in protecting their privacy or the privacy of their users. Identifying specific scenarios where it is best to be anonymous, it details the two main approaches to anonymous communication networks: onion routing and mixed networks. Details helpful tips for optimizing onion routing Defines and classifies mixed networks Illustrates the application of a mixed network to e-voting with a case study Considers the application of symmetric cipher and Diffie-Hellman key exchange in Tor Supplies detailed guidance on how to download and install Tor, I2P, JAP/JonDo, and QuickSilver Using examples and case studies, the book illustrates the usefulness of anonymous communication networks for web browsing, email, e-banking, and e-voting. It explains how to obtain anonymous usage permits for cloud software and analyzes the spectrum of existing techniques for anonymous cyber surfing. The text concludes by examining future directions to supply you with the understanding required to ensure anonymous Internet browsing.

Book Description
Tor is the most popular low-latency anonymous communication system for the Internet, helping people to protect their privacy online and circumvent Internet censorship. Its low- latency anonymity and distributed design present a variety of open research questions related to - but not limited to - anonymity, performance, and scalability, that have generated considerable interest in the research community. Testing changes to the design of the protocol or studying attacks against it in the live network is undesirable as doing so can invade the privacy of users and even put them in harm's way. Traditional Tor research has been limited to emulating a few hundred nodes with the ModelNet network emulator, or, simulating thousands of nodes with the Shadow discrete-event simulator, both of which may not accurately represent the real-world Tor network. We present SNEAC (Scalable Network Emulator for Anonymous Communication; pronounced "sneak"), a large-scale network emulator that allows us to emulate a network with thousands of nodes. Our hope is that with such large-scale experimentation, we can more closely emulate the live Tor network with half a million users.

Book Description
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Privacy Enhancing Technologies, PET 2002, held in Dresden, Germany in March 2003. The 14 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from 52 submissions during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. Among the topics addressed are mix-networks, generalized mixes, unlinkability, traffic analysis prevention, face recognition, privacy legislation, Web censorship, anonymous networking, personalized Web-based systems, and privacy in enterprises.

Book Description
In this dissertation, we address issues related to traffic analysis attacks and the engineering in anonymous communication networks. Mixes have been used in many anonymous communication systems and are supposed to provide countermeasures that can defeat various traffic analysis attacks. In this dissertation, we first focus on a particular class of traffic analysis attack, flow correlation attacks, by which an adversary attempts to analyze the network traffic and correlate the traffic of a flow over an input link at a mix with that over an output link of the same mix. Two classes of correlation methods are considered, namely time-domain methods and frequency-domain methods. We find that a mix with any known batching strategy may fail against flow correlation attacks in the sense that, for a given flow over an input link, the adversary can correctly determine which output link is used by the same flow. We theoretically analyze the effectiveness of a mix network under flow correlation attacks. We extend flow correlation attack to perform flow separation: The flow separation attack separates flow aggregates into either smaller aggregates or individual flows. We apply blind source separation techniques from statistical signal processing to separate the traffic in a mix network. Our experiments show that this attack is effective and scalable. By combining flow separation and frequency spectrum matching method, a passive attacker can get the traffic map of the mix network. We use a non-trivial network to show that the combined attack works. The second part of the dissertation focuses on engineering anonymous communication networks. Measures for anonymity in systems must be on one hand simple and concise, and on the other hand reflect the realities of real systems. We propose a new measure for the anonymity degree, which takes into account possible heterogeneity. We model the effectiveness of single mixes or of mix networks in terms of information leakage and measure it in terms of covert channel capacity. The relationship between the anonymity degree and information leakage is described, and an example is shown.

Book Description
Anonymity and unobservability have become key issues in the context of securing privacy on the Internet and in other communication networks. Services that provide anonymous and unobservable access to the Internet are important for electronic commerce applications as well as for services where users want to remain anonymous. This book is devoted to the design and realization of anonymity services for the Internet and other communcation networks. The book offers topical sections on: attacks on systems, anonymous publishing, mix systems, identity management, pseudonyms and remailers. Besides nine technical papers, an introduction clarifying the terminology for this emerging area is presented as well as a survey article introducing the topic to a broader audience interested in security issues.
