Abstract:
This paper gives a short introduction and a comparison on two low-latency anonymous communication networks. The main part features a review of the low latency anonymous communication networks, namely, The Onion Routing (Tor) and the Invisible Internet Project (I2P). An introduction to their overall structure is given, followed by a detailed description of the core parts of both networks. Furthermore, a comparison of both will feature important aspects like node selection, performance and scalability. The detailed description and comparison of the two systems show that determining which system to use highly depends on the field of application, since each system has its strength and weaknesses in specific areas.
