W3C/IAB workshop on Strengthening the Internet Against Pervasive Monitoring (STRINT)
Workshops
The Vancouver IETF plenary concluded that pervasive monitoring represents an attack on the Internet. Pervasive monitoring targets protocol data that we also need for network manageability and security. This data is captured and correlated with other data. There is an open problem as to how to enhance protocols so as to maintain network manageability and security but still limit data capture and correlation.
The overall goal of the workshop is to steer IETF and W3C work so as to be able to improve or strengthen
the Internet in the face of pervasive monitoring. A workshop report in the form of an IAB RFC will be produced after the event.
