Group signature revocable anonymity scheme for network monitoring

Abstract

Subscriber’s Privacy is in a constant conflict with security and accountability providing controls
employed for network monitoring activities of service providers and enterprises. This
paper presents the results of the author’s research in the field of distributed network security
monitoring architectures and the proposal of such a system that incorporates cryptographic
protocols and a group signature scheme to deliver privacy protecting, network surveillance
system architecture that provides subscriber’s accountability and controlled, revocable
anonymity.
