Electronic Privacy and Payment
Three papers describe an
anonymous credit card system for paying for
goods and services while preserving the anonymity of the various
parties.
Two more describe how communications can actually increase personal
privacy.
Anonymous Credit Cards
(ACC).
Low, Maxemchuk, Paul.
This paper describes the basic mechanism.
Anonymous Credit Cards and its Collusion Analysis
Low, Maxemchuk, Paul.
This paper describes the ACC protocol in terms of simple
building blocks and standard cryptogarphic techniques.
It also presents a systematic way to determine the set
of participants that must collude for private information
to be revealed.
Anonymous Internet Mercantile Protocol.
Kristol, Low, Maxemchuk.
This paper describes how the ACC system might be adapted for
use on the Internet to pay for information services.
The Use of Communications Networks to Increase Personal Privacy.
Maxemchuk, Low.
Communication networks make it possible to bring information together,
but they also make it possible to separate and hide information.
Dispursing the information enhances privacy by forcing multiple
parties to collude to compile a dossier.
The Use of Communications Networks to Increase Personal Privacy In a
Health Insurance Architecture.
Maxemchuk, Low.
An application of the privacy mechanisms to achieve personal privacy
in a national health insurance plan.
Document Marking and Electronic Publishing
Copyright protection is a key concern of publishers seeking to
use computer networks to distribute their publications.
These papers describe current research on document marking
and identification techniques
used to discourage the illicit copying of
documents distributed in either paper or electronic form.
Electronic
Marking and Identification Techniques to Discourage Document Copying.
Brassil, Low, Maxemchuk & O'Gorman.
Hiding Information in Document Images,
Brassil.
Document Marking and Identification using both Line and Word Shifting.
Low, Maxemchuk, Brassil, O'Gorman.
One of the major technical and economic challenges faced by
electronic publishing is that of preventing individuals from easily
copying and illegally distributing electronic documents.
These papers describe how cryptographic protocols can be used to discourage
the distribution of illicit electronic copies.
www-buyinfo Mailing List
The www-buyinfo mailing list discusses implementation
issues related to paying for information services on the World-Wide Web.
The mailing list home page
leads to more
information about the list's
``vision'' and how to subscribe, and to a mail archive.
Predictive Prefetch in the Nemesis Multimedia Information Service
The paper by that title
to be presented at the ACM Multimedia '94 Conference, October, 1994.
Clipper Chip
Take a look at Matt Blaze's paper,
Protocol
Failure in the Escrowed Encryption Standard,
which describes weaknesses in the Clipper encryption chip.
