Funded Activity Summary

Enhancing Privacy for Digital Communication. Protecting one's privacy in cyber world is a challenging task. Every contact to a Web server leaves a digital footprint that can be linked with other publicly available information to compile a profile of one's activities. Anonymous communication is a powerful tool for enhancing individuals' privacy and providing services such as electronic election where a person's vote must be unlinkable to him/her. However, anonymity may be misused by criminals to hide their identities and engage in illegal activities. The aim of this project is to design and analyse privacy enhancing communication systems that balance individuals' privacy and accountability, and develop criteria and metrics to compare performance of these systems.
