Tor: the second-generation onion router
TL;DR: This second-generation Onion Routing system addresses limitations in the original design by adding perfect forward secrecy, congestion control, directory servers, integrity checking, configurable exit policies, and a practical design for location-hidden services via rendezvous points.

Towards an information theoretic metric for anonymity
Andrei Serjantov,George Danezis +1 more
TL;DR: An alternative information theoretic measure of anonymity is proposed which takes into account the probabilities of users sending and receiving the messages and is shown how to calculate it for a message in a standard mix-based anonymity system.

Tarzan: a peer-to-peer anonymizing network layer
TL;DR: Measurements show that Tarzan imposes minimal overhead over a corresponding non-anonymous overlay route, and Protocols toward unbiased peer-selection offer new directions for distributing trust among untrusted entities.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Mixminion: design of a type III anonymous remailer protocol
TL;DR: Mixminion works in a real-world Internet environment, requires little synchronization or coordination between nodes, and protects against known anonymity-breaking attacks as well as or better than other systems with similar design parameters.

Untraceable electronic mail, return addresses, and digital pseudonyms
TL;DR: A technique based on public key cryptography is presented that allows an electronic mail system to hide who a participant communicates with as well as the content of the communication - in spite of an unsecured underlying telecommunication system.
Untraceable Electronic Mail, Return Addresses and Digital Pseudonyms.
TL;DR: In this article, a technique based on public key cryptography is presented that allows an electronic mail system to hide who a participant communicates with as well as the content of the communication -in spite of an unsecured underlying telecommunication system.

Crowds: anonymity for Web transactions
Michael K. Reiter,Aviel D. Rubin +1 more
TL;DR: The design, implementation, security, performance, and scalability of the Crowds system for protecting users' anonymity on the world-wide-web are described and degrees of anonymity as an important tool for describing and proving anonymity properties are introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
The dining cryptographers problem: unconditional sender and recipient untraceability
TL;DR: The solution presented here is unconditionally or cryptographically secure, depending on whether it is based on one-time-use keys or on public keys, respectively, and can be adapted to address efficiently a wide variety of practical considerations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anonymous connections and onion routing
TL;DR: Anonymous connections and their implementation using onion routing are described and several application proxies for onion routing, as well as configurations of onion routing networks are described.
