Anonimização de tráfego na pilha TCP/IP: formulação de uma política de anonimização para a internet

Abstract

The exponential growth in Internet data traffic has significantly elevated the role of network traffic analysis, which is vital for cyber security maintenance and the detailed understanding of usage patterns. Nevertheless, the processes of data collection and analysis encounter substantial privacy and security challenges, exacerbated by the stringent demands of data protection laws. In response to these challenges, this research proposes the development of a network traffic anonymization policy specifically tailored for day-to-day Internet traffic. The objective is to craft a set of guidelines that can be implemented by ordinary users and researchers alike to anonymize data effectively and within legal bounds, thereby facilitating secure, ethical research contributions and establishing a foundation for more nuanced future policies.
