چکیده
P2P security should be of interest to anyone who wants to protect their personal information and who actively uses the Internet. P2P Security has been a popular research topic for as long as P2P computing came into existence nearly a decade ago. P2P file sharing applications still remain popular and other applications based on P2P networks have gained in popularity. How do you secure your information when using P2P applications? How do you protect yourself against malicious nodes in a P2P network? This paper will review the risks inherent to P2P computing and discuss methods for securing a P2P network.

P2P Network Trust Management Survey
Peer-to-peer applications (P2P) are no longer limited to home users, and start being accepted in academic and corporate environments. While file sharing and instant messaging applications are the most traditional examples, they are no longer the only ones benefiting from the potential advantages of P2P networks. For example, network file storage, data transmission, distributed computing, and co...
متن کاملGGRA: a grouped gossip-based reputation aggregation algorithm
An important issue in P2P networks is the existence of malicious nodes that decreases the performance of such networks. Reputation system in which nodes are ranked based on their behavior, is one of the proposed solutions to detect and isolate malicious (low ranked) nodes. Gossip Trust is an interesting previously proposed algorithm for reputation aggregation in P2P networks based on t...
متن کاملA Novel Caching Strategy in Video-on-Demand (VoD) Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Networks Based on Complex Network Theory
The popularity of video-on-demand (VoD) streaming has grown dramatically over the World Wide Web. Most users in VoD P2P networks have to wait a long time in order to access their requesting videos. Therefore, reducing waiting time to access videos is the main challenge for VoD P2P networks. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for caching video based on peers' priority and video's popula...

متن کاملSecuring Peer-to-Peer Networks Using Trusted Computing
It seems likely that TCG-compliant computing platforms will become widespread over the next few years. Once one accepts that the Trusted Computing paradigm offers an interesting and powerful set of security features, the natural question arises: for what purposes can this technology be exploited? In this chapter, we examine the application of Trusted Computing to securing Peer-to-Peer (P2P) net...
