Subject: [TaoSecurity] New comment on Packet Anonymization with PktAnon.
To: tao...@gm...
Christoph P. Mayer has left a new comment on your post "Packet
Anonymization with PktAnon":
Hi,
we, the PktAnon developers, would be very happy to help getting
PktAnon into OpenPacket.org!
If there is an interest in this, we would like to kick off discussion
about mainly three points:
1. What protocols need to be supported? PktAnon supports a wide range
of standard protocol. But it needs extensions in higher layer
protocols for layer >= 5. Due to the architecture new protocols are
quite easy to add.
2. What additional anonymization primitives are needed and how can
anonymized traces be verified?
3. Will we find a way to define community standardized anonymization
profiles? From our point of view this requires cooperation from
network engineers, researchers, and lawyers. There is still no
consensus after quite some research done in this area about what
anonymization is "right". Having the community in discussing about a
standard set of anonymization profiles would be a huge step forward!
Having standardized profiles also helps e.g. OpenPacket.org to mark
traces in saying what profile has been used.
I would be very happy if there is interest in discussing these points
and getting the community further in sharing network traces.
Best regards,
Christoph P. Mayer
