Oxymoron from the day: Person Pleasant
TWO HP INSECURITY authorities are preparing to tell the Black Hat USA 2009 safety conference next week about their strategies to build a browser-based darknet.
Darknets are overt, private computer networks used for ultra-secure communications and file sharing.
Billy Hoffman, supervisor of HP's net security group,
Windows 7 Professional Key, and Matt Wood, senior security researcher at HP,
Office Ultimate 2007 Key, are making use of the new era of JavaScript engines in Chrome's V8 and Firefox's TraceMonkey to carry out the encryption necessary to make a darknet perform simply.
Apparently they've produced a prototype browser-based darknet known as Veiled as evidence of concept.
Information Week said that the pair don't intend to release the software or make the source code available.
The goal of their presentation is to show how capable the world wide web browser has become as an application platform and to discuss the technical challenges they had to overcome to generate their prototype.
The HP pair say that by employing such tools it is a lot easier for people to create darknets. Since most people don't need to be that mysterious,

Microsoft Office 2007 Professional Plus, spooks, investment bankers, governments, marketeers and other evil-doers will be able to use the technology.
Wood's system uses the server as a router. Veiled merges servers together so that clients on different servers can communicate directly.
Veiled shouldn't be seen as a replacement for an anonymity tool like Tor,
