| Tag Filter |
The Apache Filter Module filters all with
<anonym>...</anonym> marked content
out of the response. |
| on-the-fly Filter |
Define which words to filter on a per-directory
level via database. |
| PostgrSQL, MySQL and Oracle support |
because of the usage of libdbi
database abstraction layer within the
XML Producer Module, all of this databases
could be supported. All database connection
data is configurable via httpd.conf. |
| WIN / Linux enabled |
most of the components could be installed
and used both under Linux and Windows. The
tested environment is:
RedHat 8.0
PostgreSQL
libdbi
PHP(only for the showcase)
perl (for captchas)
Gimp(for Captchas)
Apache 2.0.45
|
| Trusted / Untrusted spider mode |
It is configurable if Open Anonymity should
count on the requesters signature or if the
requester first has to pass a turing test
done by Captchas to get access to the sensitive
data. Succesfull verification is announced
to Open Anonymity via Cookie (shame on me:-). |
| Apache 2.x support (DSO) |
Open Anonymity is not available for Apache
1.3.x. |
| Database functionality could be disable |
When DB functionality is disabled in httpd.conf,
XML Producer will take the list in the config
element of the openanonymity.xml to update
the anonymize list in the page elements. So
it is possible to manually change the XML
File. |
| standalone Filter |
When you decide to change the openanonymity.xml
file manually, there is no need for the XML
Producer Module. So the whole system is very
simple, you don't need a Database. The installation
process for the standalone filter is then
very simple, you would only need Apache and
Open Anonymity. (no need for PostgreSQL, libdbi,
php, perl, etc). |
| filtering of any content like images,
audio etc. |
In some cases it could be useful to filter
images, think of search engines who are familiar
with image processing (OCR) or with analysing
audio content, like this
one from Compaq. It could be also useful
to extend Open Anonymity to act different
on user-groups. (Watch out ToDo-List) |
| filtering of ASCII pdf's |
pdf's saved in ASCII could also be filtered
when text is marked with <anonym> tags |
| name of XML Tags configurable |
The name of the Tags to filter is configurable
in the httpd.conf (default is <anonym></anonym>).
Change it to <what_the_hell></is_this>
if necessary. |
| anonymous words are case-sensitive |
words out of the DB are case sensitive.
For the reason, look at Architecture |
