Abstract

We discuss the concept of anonymity in an unconditionally secure secret sharing scheme, proposing several types of anonymity and situations in which they might arise. We present a foundational framework and provide a range of general constructions of unconditionally secure secret sharing schemes offering various degrees of anonymity.
