Title
Brief announcement: scalable anonymous communication with byzantine adversary
Abstract
We describe an algorithm for fully-anonymous broadcast in large-scale networks. The protocol is similar to the dining cryptographers networks (DC-Nets) in that both are based on secure multi-party computation (MPC) techniques. However, we address the weaknesses of DC-Nets, which are poor scalability and vulnerability to jamming attacks. When compared to the state-of-the-art, our protocol reduces the total bit complexity from O(n2) to Õ(n) per anonymous message sent in a network of size n at the expense of an increase in total latency from O(1) to polylog(n). Our protocol can tolerate up to 1/3 dishonest parties, which are controlled by a static computationally-unbounded Byzantine adversary.
