I've been wondering why I havent seen more discussion on
wireless networking (802.11a/b/g) and anon/mix /dark nets.
Is this a subject of interest to anyone? I am curious what
kinds of work has been done in this area...
A few examples:
- cryptographic dead drop or anonymous broadcast: wifi
broadcasts with clients monitoring for tagged packets.
Anonymous transport for a number of miles. (probably
requires amps)
- (encrypted) wireless hops in a mix network for additional
attack resistance, and/or all wireless (mesh?) routing.
Is the mapping of existing cryptographic techniques to
wireless transport straighforward and uninteresting, or
is there additional capabilities in a wireless envrionment
that open up new uses for secure and/or anonymous
communication?
