The desire to preserve privacy in cyberspace drives research in the area of anonymous
networks. Any entity operating in cyberspace is susceptible to debilitating cyber attacks. As …

With the aim to preserve privacy over a communications network, a plethora of anonymous
protocols have been proposed along with many empirical investigations into specific …

The importance of safeguarding individuals' privacy rights in online activities is unmistakable
in today's anonymity networks. Since the introduction of Mixnet by Chaum, numerous …

Prior research on anonymous communication networks has focused, to a large extent, on
