[SecurityAffairs] Hackers will present their method to break TOR network anonymity with $3000

Two hackers have claimed to deanonymize Tor users with just a budget of 3000 dollars and will conduct a study to prove their claim. The hackers Alexander Volykin and Michael McCord are planning to present the results of their study at the 2014 Black Hat conference. In the description of the presentation, the duo claims to have successfully tested this feat by exploiting fundamental flaws in Tor design and finding the IP address of a Tor user among other tactics. The title of their presentation is: “YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE THE NSA TO BREAK TOR”.
