Abstract:
This document elaborates a threat model for the Perfect Passive
Adversary (PPA): an adversary with an interest in eavesdropping that
can passively observe network traffic at every layer at every point
in the network between the endpoints. It is intended to demonstrate
to protocol designers and implementors the observability and
inferability of information and metainformation transported over
their respective protocols, to assist in the evaluation of the
performance of these protocols and the effectiveness of their
protection mechanisms under pervasive passive surveillance.
