Come join the team for the next privacy protecting tool, one sorely needed on today's Internet. DEFJAM will provide users with a set of encrypted shared filespaces to pass files around among friends, along with a protected messaging protocol, sharing the same key management system. The messaging system will be scalable enough to handle text, voice, and video communications.
DEFJAM is not yet written. This talk is only the beginning. In the talk, a protocol proposal will be made, along with the research and rationale for the protocol design. During the talk, audience feedback and participation is encouraged, and we'll hash out a good one.
And then, we code! A framework will already be in place, but implementation will be mostly a group effort. Share in the camaraderie of developers, make new friends, and get in on the core group of a great tool.
DEFJAM was inspired by WASTE, but aims to be more secure, more user-friendly, more expandable, and with legally unencumbered code. DEFJAM will be released under a BSD license.
