Anonymity Metrics Revisited

Authors: Claudia Diaz

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 5411, Anonymous Communication and its Applications (2006)


Abstract
In 2001, two information theoretic anonymity metrics were proposed: the "effective anonymity set size" and the "degree of anonymity". In this talk, we propose an abstract model for a general anonymity system which is consistent with the definition of anonymity on which the metrics are based. We revisit entropy-based anonymity metrics, and we apply them to Crowds, a practical anonymity system. We discuss the differences between the two metrics and the results obtained in the example.

Improving the Decoding Efficiency of Private Search

Authors: George Danezis and Claudia Diaz

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 5411, Anonymous Communication and its Applications (2006)


Abstract
We show two ways of recovering all matching documents, in the Ostrovsky et al. Private Search, while requiring considerably shorter buffers. Both schemes rely on the fact that documents colliding in a buffer position provide the sum of their plaintexts. Efficient decoding algorithms can make use of this property to recover documents never present alone in a buffer position.
