DAITA in airVPN?
go558a83nk reacted to Staff for a post in a topic
Hello! We had a similar project that is now temporarily frozen for good reasons: in real life the ability of the "AI"s to guess successfully the real destination from analysis of the VPN tunnel traffic is poor (the excellent success rates you see are achieved only in a controlled environment where the victim visits only destinations pre-determined from a tiny list) AmneziaWG is quickly becoming (*) a more universal approach that may be effective and that does not require our own proprietary solution, provided that constant rate tunnel, deterministic batching and traffic morphing are not required -- safe assumptions as DAITA doesn't aim at obtaining them (*) While early AmneziaWG releases could "only" add junk packets during handshakes, making it not suitable to replace DAITA, AmneziaWG latest release is also capable to perform padding of transport messages and modification of their header range. It can do all of the above, optionally, over a faithful imitation of a different protocol (any protocol that can be built on UDP), including specific HTTP/3 web sites initial flow mimicry. While these options efficacy in fighting AI guided traffic analysis must be verified in a controlled environment when AI abilities will improve, and in spite of the fact that AmneziaWG currently lacks the important active distortion feature that DAITA offers, together with reason 1 they are sufficient to let us prioritize AmneziaWG support in the infrastructure and our software, and freeze proprietary solutions research. Once AmneziaWG is operating in the whole infrastructure, it may be considered whether adding active distortion to match this DAITA feature, or anyway building additional features to outperform DAITA (on top of the many already available in Amnezia and not from scratch), is worth the effort or not.

1 pointHello! We're very glad to announce that Eddie Android edition 4.0.0 beta 2 is now available. New: how to use Eddie in network where the "bootstrap" servers can not be reached Eddie downloads user and infrastructure data, essential to use the service, from special "bootstrap servers" through an encrypted flow inside HTTP. If the bootstrap servers are blocked or the underlying protocol to port 80 is filtered out, Eddie is unable to proceed. Starting from Eddie 4 beta 2 version, the ability to retrieve such data locally has been added. Whenever bootstrap servers are unreachable, Eddie can read the latest available local data to connect to a VPN server. Once connected the bootstrap servers are again reachable and the local data are immediately updated for future usage. The local data remain valid as long as you don't need to change user. On top of all of the above, Eddie can now retrieve such data through the login procedure that now can be started even when a connection to a VPN server was previously established via a profile. Therefore, when you are in a restrictive network that blocks access to bootstrap servers, you can connect through a profile generated by AirVPN web site Configuration Generator. After this first connection, log your account in to the service by selecting the specific option on the left pane, enter your AirVPN account credentials as usual and make sure that Remember me checkbox is ticked: Eddie will download all the necessary files and store them locally. This procedure is "once and for all", at least as long as you don't need to change account. After this initial connection, Eddie will be able to log your account in to the infrastructure, retrieve servers data and establish connections without profiles and without bootstrap servers, offering again full AirVPN integration even when bootstrap servers are unreachable. Only If you change account you must repeat the procedure. New: "Open with..." option added to "Share" option Different Android versions allow management of files with different restrictions. Different apps may support different intents on specific Android versions. To enlarge total compatibility, now Eddie offers two different options to export and manage files, including generated profiles. You will find the usual "Share" option coupled with a new "Open with..." option. Some apps support only one intent, other apps only specific intents on specific Android versions, and so on. By adding this option Eddie enlarges considerably the amount of apps you will be able to open and/or share files with. New: AmneziaWG parameters range validity AmneziaWG parameter range validity has been documented in three different ways (official web site, GitHub documentation files, and developers comment) and the web site documentation that it's still official is in reality not aligned with the source code. The new parameters range validation adopted by Eddie 4.0.0 beta 2 is based now on GitHub latest documentation integrated by source code analysis. The original message of this thread has been updated accordingly. You will find on it the new download link and checksum, as well as detailed Amnezia description. If you decide to test, please report at your convenience any bug and problem in this thread. If possible generate a report from the app in a matter of seconds: by tapping the paper plane icon on the Log view bar rightmost side you will generate a full system report which will include both log and logcat and have it sent to our servers. Then you just need to send us the link the app shows you (open a ticket if you prefer to do it in private). Kind regards & datalove AirVPN Staff
