Appearance
This article is a rewrite of the existing article [dining cryptographers protocol]]. Since this page is bound to be incomplete, unedited, or otherwise messy, please do not merge changes from here into the main article just yet. |
Problem Statement
- Anecdotal example of problem in cryptography
- Describe need for new protocol to solve problem
History
- (Does this protocol even have a well-defined history?)
- What were the design goals for this protocol?
Define Protocol
- Start off with one bit
- Give mathematical proof as to why it works (binary addition)
- Graphic description
- Move on to multiple bits
Considerations
- Advantages, i.e. anonymous sender, possibly anonymous recipient
- Disadvantages, i.e. slow, easy to interrupt
