Anonymous crypt P2P. A model for a secure and private communication

Abstract

The aim of this work is to contribute to the modelling of a peer-to-peer protocol in order to fill a lack that still remains in the wide panorama of developed model, i.e. .e. a deterministic anonymous and crypt peer-to-peer communication system. This work considers first the most important model confirmed by the diffusion and the reliability for their purposes, presenting an overview that focuses on the main characteristics. Than an analysis of the requirements is done and two different strategies are analysed, building two models for different anonymity and security levels. The two models are discussed and a communication protocol for a minimal user client interface is described. Finally the scalability problem is discussed
