This textbook provides a unique lens through which the myriad of existing Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs) can be easily comprehended and appreciated. It answers key privacy-centered questions with clear and detailed explanations.Why is privacy important? How and why is your privacy being eroded and what risks can this pose for you? What are some tools for protecting your privacy in online environments? How can these tools be understood, compared, and evaluated? What steps can you take to gain more control over your personal data?This book addresses the above questions by focusing on three fundamental elements:It introduces a simple classification of PETs that allows their similarities and differences to be highlighted and analyzed;It describes several specific PETs in each class, including both foundational technologies and important recent additions to the field;It explainshow to use this classification to determine which privacy goals are actually achievable in a given real-world environment. Once the goals are known, this allows the most appropriate PETs to be selected in order to add the desired privacy protection to the target environment. To illustrate, the book examines the use of PETs in conjunction with various security technologies, with the legal infrastructure, and with communication and computing technologies such as Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Machine Learning (ML).Designed as an introductory textbook on PETs, this book is essential reading for graduate-level students in computer science and related fields, prospective PETs researchers, privacy advocates, and anyone interested in technologies to protect privacy in online environments.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Symposium on Foundations and Practice of Security, FPS 2022, held in Ottawa, ON, Canada, during December 12–14, 2022. The 26 regular and 3 short papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 83 submissions.

This book contains revised selected papers from the 24th International Conference on Selected Areas in Cryptography, SAC 2017, held in Ottawa, ON, Canada in August 2017. The 23 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 66 submissions. The focus of the conference was on specific themes in the area of cryptographic system design and analysis such as:Design and analysis of symmetric key cryptosystemsPrimitives for symmetric key cryptography, including block and stream ciphers, hash functions, and MAC algorithmsEfficient implementations of symmetric and public key algorithms

SAC'99 was the sixth in a series of annual workshops on Selected Areas in Cryptography. Previous workshops were held at Carleton University in Ottawa (1995 and 1997) and at Queen's University in Kingston (1994, 1996, and 1998). The intent of the annual workshop is to provide a relaxed atmosphere in which researchers in cryptography can present and discuss new work on selected areas of current interest. The themes for the SAC'99 workshop were: { Design and Analysis of Symmetric Key Cryptosystems { E cient Implementations of Cryptographic Systems { Cryptographic Solutions for Web/Internet Security The timing of the workshop was particularly fortuitous as the announcement by NIST of the v e nalists for AES coincided with the rst morning of the workshop, precipitating lively discussion on the merits of the selection! A total of 29 papers were submitted to SAC'99 and, after a review process that had all papers reviewed by at least 3 referees, 17 were accepted and p- sented.As well, two invited presentations were given: one by Miles Smid from NIST entitled \From DES to AES: Twenty Years of Government Initiatives in Cryptography"and the other by Mike Reiter from Bell Labs entitled \Password Hardening with Applications to VPN Security". The program committee for SAC'99 consisted of the following members: Carlisle Adams, Tom Cusick, Howard Heys, Lars Knudsen, Henk Meijer, Luke O'Connor, Doug Stinson, Stao rd Tavares, and Serge Vaudenay.
