Inspiration

Low latency applications such as Tor do a very good job at hiding the identity of their users but are usually prone to passive traffic analysis, which may result in major privacy breaches of the user base. A high latency alternative is the use of server networks such as mix networks to protect against the strongest adversaries. The goal of this project is to build such a mix network.

What it does

A mix server has two main tasks: (re-)encryption and shuffling of its input messages. Although these tasks are fairly straightforward, the strength of the mix network lies with the fact that it is inherently distributed.
