Privacy & Security Model

Log0’s security design focuses on content confidentiality, identity protection, and metadata minimization.

6.1 End-to-End Encryption

Content is encrypted end-to-end where applicable. The network ensures that intermediate hops cannot read payload data.

6.2 Layered Transport Privacy

Transport encryption is layered so each hop sees only minimal forwarding context. This reduces the chance of full-path reconstruction.

6.3 No Persistent Logs

Nodes are designed not to keep access logs by default. Any operational metrics required for stability can be aggregated locally and minimized, with retention constraints.

6.4 Anti-Correlation Strategy

Log0 reduces correlation through:

• Frequent route rotation

• Peer diversity

• Timing variability

• Micro-network reshaping

6.5 Sybil & Eclipse Mitigation

Decentralized networks face identity-based attacks where adversaries attempt to control large portions of routing. Log0 incorporates strategies to reduce this risk:

• Reputation signals without central authority

• Diversity constraints across routing paths

• Rate limiting on suspicious nodes

• Adaptive avoidance of risky clusters
