Title
A Security Framework for BitTorrent
Goal
Description
BitTorrent is the de-facto peer-to-peer (P2P) standard. Unfortunately, its lack of security has led to it being mainly used for illegally exchanging gray content (e.g. copyrighted materiel). The objective of this project is to add authentication, authorisation, confidentiality and data integrity to BitTorrent.
