The development of web applications is typically done oblivious to privacy precautions. Largely, this is due to lack of technical knowledge and appropriate tools for enforc- ing privacy. As a result, web users' personal information is constantly at risk. We introduce a solution that protects arbitrary web applications from several dangerous privacy threats. It is easy to install, usable (e.g.,

This paper describes the design, implementation, analy- sis, and evaluation of a Practical Buses protocol for anony- mous network communication. The protocol, based on the metaphor of a city bus, provides connection anonymity for Internet-based communication. We modify the origi- nal Buses protocol from the literature to provide receiver anonymity, strengthen security, and improve efficiency and scalability. Our prototype is

This proposal develops the concept of combining a handwritten signature, digital signature, and a smart card into an overall Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). The purpose of this proposed solution is to fulfill the cultural gap between traditional digital signatures and current smart card digital certificate/signature. It is achieved through the integration of culturally relevant built-in features for increasing the acceptability of digital signatures and smart cards in global e-government/e-commerce, while maintaining the security features of current digital signature/certificate schemes.
