I recently came across an interesting paper: "This paper presents Vuvuzela, a system that provides scalable private point-to-point text messaging. Vuvuzela ensures that no adversary will learn which pairs of users are communicating, as long as just one out of N servers is not compromised, even for users who continue to use Vuvuzela for years. ... Vuvuzela’s design assumes an adversary that controls all but one of the Vuvuzela servers (users need not know which one), controls an arbitrary number of clients, and can monitor, block, delay, or inject traffic on any network link. Two users, Alice and Bob, communicating through Vuvuzela should have their communication protected if their two clients, and any one server, are uncompromised."
I don't see how this wouldn't be of interest here... Anyone qualified to evaluate their claims care to comment? -carlo Link to the paper: http://jelle.vandenhooff.name/vuvuzela.pdf Authors: Jelle van den Hooff, David Lazar, Matei Zaharia, Nickolai Zeldovich
