Architecture : x86_64

Repository : fedora
Summary : The obfourscator, a pluggable transport for Tor
URL : https://gitlab.com/yawning/obfs4
License : GPLv3 and BSD
Description :
: This is a look-like nothing obfuscation protocol that incorporates ideas and
: concepts from Philipp Winter's ScrambleSuit protocol. The obfs naming was
: chosen primarily because it was shorter, in terms of protocol ancestry obfs4
: is much closer to ScrambleSuit than obfs2/obfs3.
:
: The notable differences between ScrambleSuit and obfs4:
:
: * The handshake always does a full key exchange (no such thing as a Session
: Ticket Handshake).
: * The handshake uses the Tor Project's ntor handshake with public keys
: obfuscated via the Elligator 2 mapping.
: * The link layer encryption uses NaCl secret boxes (Poly1305/XSalsa20).
:
: As an added bonus, obfs4proxy also supports acting as an obfs2/3 client and
: bridge to ease the transition to the new protocol.
