Project "Anonymity and Unobservability in the Internet"

It is a hard problem to achieve anonymity for real-time services in the Internet (e.g. Web access). All existing concepts fail when we assume a very strong attacker model (i.e. an attacker is able to observe all communication links). We also show that these attacks are real-world attacks. This paper outlines alternative models which mostly render these attacks useless. Our present work tries to increase the efficiency of these measures. 1 The perfect system
