Ziele
The students are able to describe, classify, and assess techniques for private and anonymous communication. They are able to reason about the motivation for using these techniques and can describe different scenarios and applications. They are able to describe, classify, and (to a certain extent) counter attacks on privacy and anonymity. The students understand the architectures of different tools, approaches, and techniques that have been proposed and developed in this context. They are able to reason about the achieved levels of protection and also gain practical experience with different tools.
