AnonySense allows applications to submit sensing \emph{tasks\/} to be distributed across participating mobile devices, later receiving verified, yet anonymized, sensor data \emph{reports\/} back from the field, thus providing the first secure implementation of this participatory sensing model. We describe our trust model, and the security properties that drove the design of AnonySense. We evaluate our prototype implementation through experiments that indicate the feasibility of this approach, and through two applications: a Wi-Fi rogue access point detector and a lost-object finder.} }
