Hiding Data Sources in P2P Networks

        Marek Klonowski, Miroslaw Kutylowski, Bartlomiej Rozanski

We propose a peer-to-peer (P2P) architecture where the identity of nodes
holding   data  remains  hidden,  but  the  information  itself  can  be
efficiently fetched. This  architecture  can  be  used  to  protect  P2P
networks against malicious attacks towards nodes holding important data.
In particular, our protocol  can  be  used  for  maintaining  access  to
revocation  lists,  blacklists  and  similar  data,  which is of growing
importance for modern P2P protocols.
