Replying to [comment:28 mikeperry]:
> Hrmm. One of the major reasons people might not grok this whole doc is
because the security and privacy requirements should perhaps go first, and
then the adversary model afterwards. In this way, I might be able to
describe how each adversary goal, capability, and attack lines against the
security and privacy properties we aim to provide.
But both the security and the privacy properties follow from the adversary
model. Thus, it seems a bit odd to me to describe the former first and
then deliver the model that fits to them. But, nevertheless, I think it is
a good idea to describe how the attacker model is related to the security
and privacy properties in more depth. Maybe in an additional,
informal/informational section in "2. Design Requirements and Philosophy"
just after the requirements got introduced? That probably depends on the
stuff you'd like to write...
> Also, the adversary model could then be its own top-level section,
instead of buried in the intro...
That seems orthogonal to me but is a good idea anyway.
