| Summary: | Tor family was focused on design and given a family-level measurement of it.Based on Tor node families (over 3000) discovered from live Tor network data (from Jan.2011 to Dec.2012),a few characteristics of Tor node families were revealed,such as family size,bandwidth,geographical distribution as well as operators providing a few big families.The analysis validated the irreplaceable role played by family design in enhancing Tor’s anonymity.Based on the measurement,security analysis showed the serious availability threat a compromised node family can cause to the Tor network.Besides,It also discussed Tor hidden families and the potential anonymity risk caused by them. |
