Allowing Genuine Users and Blocking Bad Users in Anonymizing Network: The Nymble

Anand A. Maha ^[2] | P. B. Kumbarkar

Abstract: The internet is great source of information. This information is being change through the network. The anonymizing network is network which hides the clients IP address from the server by using the sequence of the routers. But users are using this network for defacing the popular websites. Currently these popular website administrator blocks the IP address of the malicious user. But if user is inside the anonymizing network then website administrator will not able to find the IP address of the owner. Then the administrator will block all the existing nodes of the anonymizing network. This will deny the anonymous access to the misbehaving nodes along with users which are not misbehaving. To solve this problem we present the Nymble which will block only those users which are misbehaving inside the network. Also we are maintaining the privacy of those nodes which are behaving maliciously inside the anonymizing network.
