44 Studying Bridges ❶ Onion Router whose IP is not publicly listed ❷ is always elected as the first hop ❸ can offer multiple Pluggable Transports.
45 Studying Bridges Our goals ❶ Onion Router whose IP is not publicly listed ❷ is always elected as the first hop ❸ can offer multiple Pluggable Transports. Perform first systematic study of the security of the Tor bridge infrastructure
46 Studying Bridges Our goals ❶ Onion Router whose IP is not publicly listed ❷ is always elected as the first hop ❸ can offer multiple Pluggable Transports.
47 Studying Bridges Our goals ❶ Onion Router whose IP is not publicly listed ❷ is always elected as the first hop ❸ can offer multiple Pluggable Transports.

56 Bridge discovery approach
57 Bridge discovery approach 1. Finding candidate IP addresses
58 Bridge discovery approach 1. Finding candidate IP addresses 2. Filtering relays
59 Bridge discovery approach 1. Finding candidate IP addresses ~

63 Public bridges - population April 2016: 5.3K active public bridges 2.3K bridges with clients
64 Public bridges - population April 2016: 5.3K active public bridges 2.3K bridges with clients Different population metrics!
65 Public bridges - stability 55% of the bridges live < 1 day No clients Bridges with clients long lived 4 months (median) Bridges with clients rarely change IP address

70 Public bridges OR port distribution
71 Public bridges OR port distribution Top-3 OR ports ( 444) are used by 71% of public bridges (99% of active fingerprints never change their OR port)
72 Public bridges OR port distribution Top-3 OR ports ( 444) are used by 71% of public bridges (99% of active fingerprints never change their OR port) Scanning on those ports reveals majority of bridges!
