The areas covered in this session are diverse in order to give the audience an overview of the many PET projects going on these days. They specifically cover mail encryption, anonymizing technologies and RFID protection initiatives. Moreover, reports will be given on political and educational work going on in the area, specifically in 3rd world countries, in the US as well as in Germany. --> more Mod: Sarah Spiekermann Assistant Professor, Institute of Information Systems, Humboldt University Berlin Robert Guerra privaterra.org & Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility (CPSR), Toronto Roger Dingledine Project Leader, Free Haven & Owner and Founder, Moria Research Labs, Boston Tor: an anonymizing overlay network for TCP Tor (second-generation Onion Routing) is a distributed overlay network that anonymizes TCP-based applications like web browsing, secure shell, and instant messaging. We have a deployed network of 30 nodes in the US and Europe, and the code is released unencumbered as free software. Tor's rendezvous point design enables location-hidden services -- users can run a standard webserver or other service without revealing its IP. I'll give an overview of the Tor architecture, and talk about why you'd want to use it, what security it provides, and how user applications interface to it. I'll show a working Tor network, and invite the audience to connect to it and use it.
