Hausman, New Directions in Regulation Seminar on Broadband Access To: HIIP(a)Harvard.edu Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2001 17:07:35 -0500 HIIP Seminar "Current Developments in U.S. Data Privacy Regulation" Barry J. Hurewitz Government and Regulatory Affairs, Hale and Dorr LLP Monday, November 26, 2001 noon-1:30 p.m. BCSIA Library, Littauer Room 369, 3rd Floor John F. Kennedy School of Government Regulatory protection of personal privacy in the U.S. has risen from obscurity in the past few years. Sector by sector, privacy regulations have transformed e-commerce and invigorated advocates of personal information privacy. Privacy protections have been extended to driver's license information, children's online information, financial data, wireless communications, and health records. A combination of industry self- regulation and government enforcement has shaped emerging practices in consumer online privacy. Now, the change in administrations, the war on terrorism, emerging technologies and economic trouble in the online industry are changing the privacy debate in Washington. The FTC has abandoned its call for new privacy laws, and Congress has expanded law enforcement surveillance powers. What is the U.S. regulatory structure for privacy protection? What is happening to e-privacy? Does better information need to compromise privacy? How will the current trend affect e-business? Barry Hurewitz, a partner in Hale and Dorr's Government & Regulatory Affairs Department, has a multidisciplinary practice focusing on federal legislative and regulatory matters affecting technology companies, including federal technology policy, regulatory compliance, government procurement, and technology transfer. As data privacy and security issues have expanded across the high- technology sector, Mr. Hurewitz has advised clients on U.S. and international data privacy developments, including Internet privacy, health data privacy, financial privacy, the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor program for protecting personal data about EU persons, federal surveillance techniques, and privacy in telecommunications. Hurewitz' practice includes regulatory counseling, developing internal corporate data protection procedures, responding to enforcement actions and private claims, participating in the development of new regulations, and tracking emerging state and federal privacy legislation. HIIP Seminar - Schedule for Remaining Sessions, Autumn 2001 December 3 Tim Berners-Lee, Director, World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), and Senior Research Scientist, Laboratory for Computer Science, MIT Seminars to be held on Mondays, 12-1:30pm, BCSIA Library, Room Littauer 369, John F. Kennedy School of Government This is a brown bag style seminar with limited seating available. The schedule is posted at <http://www.ksg.harvard.edu/iip/HIIP-Seminar.html >. The 2001-2002 HIIP Seminar Series is dedicated to the memory of Michael L. Dertouzos (1936-2001). Thursday, November 29, 2001 12:00 - 1:30 p.m. Bell Hall John F. Kennedy School of Government The Regulatory Policy Program and The Harvard Information Infrastructure Project, Center for Business and Government, John F. Kennedy School of Government invite you to attend a New Directions in Regulation Lunch Seminar with Jerry Hausman on "Broadband Internet Access: The Effect of Asymmetric Regulation" The growing market for current digital cellular service (2G) is beginning to decrease the usage of wireline (traditional) telephone service. Although long distance usage is decreasing, as is local usage in countries where consumers pay to make local calls, wireline telephone service offers broadband (high speed) Internet service which current mobile 2G technology cannot offer. Professor Hausman will explore whether the next generation mobile technology, 3G, will provide an adequate data substitute for wireline service. If it does, the need for regulation for wireline service is likely to disappear along with the numerous distortions in the economy that traditional forms of regulation create. Jerry A. Hausman is the John and Jennie S. MacDonald Professor of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He has taught at MIT for 28 years. He is Director of the MIT Telecommunications Economics Research Program. Professor Hausman teaches a course, "Competition in Telecommunications," to graduate students in economics and business. He is also a Special Consultant to Lexecon, Inc. Professor Hausman received the John Bates Clark Award from the American Economics Association in 1985 for the most outstanding contributions to economics by an economist under 40 years of age. He also received the Frisch Medal from the Econometric Society. Professor Hausman has published numerous papers in econometrics and applied microeconomics. His recent applied research has been in differentiated products and in telecommunications. --- end forwarded text -- ----------------- R. A.

[1]the physics arXiv blog [2]Breakthrough calculations on the capacity of a steganographic channel Posted: 03 Nov 2008 11:49 PM CST [3]Steganography Steganography is the art of hiding a message in such a way that only the sender and receiver realise it is there. (By contrast, cryptography disguises the content of a message but makes no attempt to hide it.) The central problem for steganographers is how much data can be hidden without being detected. But the complexity of the problem means it has been largely ignored in favor of more easily solved conundrums. Jeremiah Harmsen from Google Inc in Mountain View and William Pearlman at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy NY, say: "while false alarms and missed signals have rightfully dominated the steganalysis literature, very little is known about the amount of information that can be sent past these algorithms." So the pair have taken an important step to change that. Their approach is to think along the same lines as Claude Shannon in his famous determination of the capacity of a noisy channel. In Shannon's theory, a transmission is considered successful if the decoder properly determines which message the encoder has sent. In the stego-channel, a transmission is successful if the decoder properly determines the sent message without anybody else detecting its presence. Previous attempts have all placed limits on the steganographers channel for example, by stipulating that the hidden data, or stego-channel, has the same distribution as the cover channel. But Harmsen and Pearlman have take a more general approach which takes some important steps towards working out the channel capacity over a much wider range of conditions. The results are interesting and in some cases counter-intuitive (for example, adding noise to channel can increase its steganographic capacity and in some cases, mounting two attacks on a channel instead of one can do the same).

Lucrative update
by Patrick 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

Lucrative release 4 is out. I know many people are used to seeing releases numbered like "0.000001", "0.000002", "2.0.3.0.14.657" etc. but release numbering systems are essentially arbitrary in nature so don't get excited as Lucrative goes toward version 50+. This release is a fairly minor one, but included some changes such as the client name that I wanted to get out as soon as possible. There is also a new development weblog at http://lucrative.thirdhost.com/weblog/. I went through an install with someone over IRC last night and made a blog entry summarizing the install notes. I recommend reading the notes before attempting an install. I am glad to help with an install, drop me a note at patrick(a)lfcgate.com if you have trouble. Some documentation on the various entities in the Lucrative system is now available on the website, http://lucrative.thirdhost.com/documentation.php but more is needed and coming. If Lucrative is interesting to you, please consider helping in any way you can: Feedback Installation reports Suggestions Comments Criticism Feature requests Source code patches Donations Are all very much welcomed. And criticism is more useful to me than praise. My sincere thanks to everyone who has participated so far by installing, testing, providing feedback, spreading the word, and donating. And finally I just received word from SourceForge that the project registration for Lucrative has been approved.

[i2p] Tunnel cryptography for I2P 0.5 (corrected typo)
by barnesc＠engr.orst.edu 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

Citizens of I2P, The following is a discussion of tunnel cryptography plans for I2P 0.5. There are two options; one will be chosen. [1] and [2] offer more complete discussion of these plans. Note that the cryptographic methods discussed in [2] are incomplete. They are complete in this message. - Connelly ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Tunnel cryptography for I2P 0.5 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Currently when I2P 0.4.x passes an (end-to-end encrypted) message M down a tunnel, it is easy for two attackers in different locations of the tunnel to observe the same message M. This makes I2P highly vulnerable to the predecessor attack. Can this situation be improved? The best implementations we currently know of fit in two categories, and use symmetric cryptography. The categories are: 1. The inbound tunnel gateway knows all symmetric private keys used by other hops in the tunnel. The outbound tunnel endpoint knows only its own symmetric private key. Messages are checksummed to prevent modification. Pros: Tagging attacks are defeated. Cons: Attacking an N-length inbound tunnel won't be much harder than attacking a 2-length inbound tunnel. If the gateway is malicious, then the gateway can collude with a malicious hop at any other position in the tunnel; thus the two can identify that they are in the same tunnel. => Predecessor attack. This was one plan by jrandom. A proposed implementation is given [1]. This implementation could be subject to tagging attacks in certain cases. I have a revised scheme in mind that may be safe from these attacks. 2. The inbound tunnel gateway has only its own symmetric private key. Likewise for the outbound tunnel endpoint. No messages are checksummed in the tunnel. All messages have the same size in the tunnel to prevent tagging. Synchronized PRNGs may be used as described at [2] to help prevent tunnel loops (where an attacker DoSes several peers by placing them a "looped" tunnel). Pros: Attacking an N-length inbound tunnel is not easy (one must do timing or message counting analysis). Cons: Tagging (this can be done, but not detected), tunnel loops can be created, extra packets can be generated within the tunnel. This plan was originally drafted in [2] based on a discussion by jrandom and ???. However, this document has pending modifications because it is not a complete cryptosystem. A full implementation plan is appended to the end of this document, based on a discussion by jrandom and Connelly. One of these options will (presumably) be used in I2P 0.5. If you discover a flaw or improvement for either implementation, let us know. If you have other useful input, drop by IRC or post a message to this maillist. We have not found a complete cryptographic analysis for either option. We are using standard cryptographic primitives and methods when possible. Option 2 is known as a "non-checksummed tunnel." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Proposed Implementation (non-checksummed tunnels) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Leaving out the PRNGs. As part of a tunnel, we receive and send messages which contain {preIV, payload}. Here preIV is a single block from which the initialization vector (IV) is derived, and payload is a sequence of blocks containing the message which is being delivered down the tunnel. Here 'block' is any string which the symmetric block cipher can operate on. The preIV and the payload are successively wrapped in layers of encryption as a message travels down an inbound tunnel, and messages are successively unwrapped for outbound tunnels. Encryption at hop i: 1. Drop packet (with warning) if we've seen preIV before for a previous message in this tunnel [3]. 2. IV := hash(preIV + hop i's secret key 1) 3. preIV := ecb_encrypt(preIV, hop i's secret key2) 4. payload := cbc_encrypt(payload, hop i's secret key3, IV) 5. Return {preIV, payload}. Decryption at hop i: 1. preIV := ecb_decrypt(preIV, hop i's secret key2) 2. IV := hash(preIV + hop i's secret key1) 3. payload := cbc_decrypt(payload, hop i's secret key3, IV) 4. Return {preIV, payload}. Inbound tunnel: * Message M arrives at the inbound gateway, aka hop 1. * Hops 1, 2, ..., N successively encrypt. * We are the tunnel endpoint, and we have everyone's secret keys, so we can use decrypt(N), decrypt(N-1), ...decrypt(1) to unwrap the encryption made by others. We recover message M. Outbound tunnel: * We have a message M we want to send. * We are the tunnel creator, so we have everyone's secret keys. We build M* by doing encrypt(N), encrypt(N-1), ..., encrypt(1). * We send M* to hop 1. Hops 1, 2, ..., N successively decrypt. * The outbound tunnel endpoint recovers M. [1]. http://dev.i2p.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/i2p/router/doc/ tunnel.html?rev=HEAD [2]. http://dev.i2p.net/~jrandom/tunnel-alt.html [3]. A hash table or alternatively a bloom filter can be used to detect whether we have previously seen a preIV.

[1]the physics arXiv blog [2]Breakthrough calculations on the capacity of a steganographic channel Posted: 03 Nov 2008 11:49 PM CST [3]Steganography Steganography is the art of hiding a message in such a way that only the sender and receiver realise it is there. (By contrast, cryptography disguises the content of a message but makes no attempt to hide it.) The central problem for steganographers is how much data can be hidden without being detected. But the complexity of the problem means it has been largely ignored in favor of more easily solved conundrums. Jeremiah Harmsen from Google Inc in Mountain View and William Pearlman at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy NY, say: "while false alarms and missed signals have rightfully dominated the steganalysis literature, very little is known about the amount of information that can be sent past these algorithms." So the pair have taken an important step to change that. Their approach is to think along the same lines as Claude Shannon in his famous determination of the capacity of a noisy channel. In Shannon's theory, a transmission is considered successful if the decoder properly determines which message the encoder has sent. In the stego-channel, a transmission is successful if the decoder properly determines the sent message without anybody else detecting its presence. Previous attempts have all placed limits on the steganographers channel for example, by stipulating that the hidden data, or stego-channel, has the same distribution as the cover channel. But Harmsen and Pearlman have take a more general approach which takes some important steps towards working out the channel capacity over a much wider range of conditions. The results are interesting and in some cases counter-intuitive (for example, adding noise to channel can increase its steganographic capacity and in some cases, mounting two attacks on a channel instead of one can do the same). It's fair to say that Harmsen and Pearlman are pioneering of the study of steganographic capacity and that with this breakthrough, the field looks rich with low hanging fruit. Expect more!
