  abstract = {The GNU Name System (GNS) is a fully decentralized public key infrastructure
        and name system with private information retrieval semantics. It serves a
        holistic approach to interact seamlessly with IoT ecosystems and enables people
        and their smart objects to prove their identity, membership and privileges -
        compatible with existing technologies. In this report we demonstrate how a wide
        range of private authentication and identity management scenarios are addressed
        by GNS in a cost-efficient, usable and secure manner. This simple, secure and
        privacy-friendly authentication method is a significant breakthrough when cyber
        peace, privacy and liability are the priorities for the benefit of a wide range
        of the population. After an introduction to GNS itself, we show how GNS can be
        used to authenticate servers, replacing the Domain Name System (DNS) and X.509
        certificate authorities (CAs) with a more privacy-friendly but equally usable
        protocol which is trustworthy, human-centric and includes group authentication.
        We also built a demonstrator to highlight how GNS can be used in medical
        computing to simplify privacy-sensitive data processing in the Swiss health-care
        system. Combining GNS with attribute-based encryption, we created ReclaimID, a
        robust and reliable OpenID Connect-compatible authorization system. It includes
        simple, secure and privacy-friendly single sign-on to seamlessly share selected
        attributes with Web services, cloud ecosystems. Further, we demonstrate how
        ReclaimID can be used to solve the problem of addressing, authentication and data
        sharing for IoT devices. These applications are just the beginning for GNS; the
        versatility and extensibility of the protocol will lend itself to an even broader
        range of use-cases. GNS is an open standard with a complete free software
        reference implementation created by the GNU project. It can therefore be easily
        audited, adapted, enhanced, tailored, developed and/or integrated, as anyone is
        allowed to use the core protocols and implementations free of charge, and to
        adopt them to their needs under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public
        License, a free software license approved by the Free Software Foundation.},
