- Abstract: We present Tracer Tokens, a hardware token of privacy-preserving contact
tracing utilizing Exposure Notification \cite{GAEN} protocol. Through
subnetworks, we show that any disease spread by proximity can be traced such as
seasonal flu, cold, regional strains of COVID-19, or Tuberculosis. Further, we
show this protocol to notify $n^n$ users in parallel, providing a speed of
information unmatched by current contact tracing methods.

We argue that privacy concerns currently hold deployment back.
We propose a contact tracing algorithm with differential privacy guarantees against this attack.
Especially for realistic test scenarios, we achieve a two to ten-fold reduction in the infection rate of the virus.

The world is under an ongoing pandemic, COVID-19, of a scale last seen a century ago.
Contact tracing is one of the most critical and highly effective tools for containing and breaking the chain of infections.
Due to the invasive nature of contact tracing, it is very important to preserve the privacy of the users.

Contact tracing has been used to identify people who were in close proximity to those infected with SARS-Cov2 coronavirus.
A number of digital contract tracing applications have been introduced to facilitate or complement physical contact tracing.
We present ideas from Graph Neural Networks and explainability, that could improve trust in these applications, and encourage adoption by people.

Contact tracing is an important method to control the spread of an infectious disease such as COVID-19.
Current solutions do not utilize the huge volume of data stored in business databases and individual digital devices.
We propose BeeTrace, a unified platform that breaks data silos and deploys state-of-the-art cryptographic protocols to guarantee privacy goals.

The global outbreak of COVID-19 has led to efforts to manage and mitigate the continued spread of the disease.
One of these efforts include the use of contact tracing to identify people who are at-risk of developing the disease through exposure to an infected person.
There has been significant interest in the development and use of digital contact tracing solutions to supplement the work of human contact tracers.
The collection and use of sensitive personal details by these applications has led to a number of concerns by the stakeholder groups with a vested interest in these solutions.
