Since the initial revelations of pervasive surveillance in 2013,
several classes of attacks on Internet communications have been
discovered. In this document, we develop a threat model that
describes these attacks on Internet confidentiality. We assume an
attacker that is interested in undetected, indiscriminate
eavesdropping. The threat model is based on published, verified
attacks.
This document is a product of the Internet Architecture Board.
