Attrition Defenses for a Peer-to-Peer Digital Preservation System

چکیده
1 In peer-to-peer systems, attrition attacks include both traditional, network-level denial of service attacks as well as application-level attacks in which malign peers conspire to waste loyal peers’ resources. We describe several defenses for the LOCKSS peer-to-peer digital preservation system that help ensure that applicationlevel attrition attacks even from powerful adversaries are less effective than simple network-level attacks, and that network-level attacks must be intense, widespread, and prolonged to impair the system.

متن کاملA Genetic Programming-based trust model for P2P Networks
Abstract— Peer-to-Peer ( P2P ) systems have been the center of attention in recent years due to their advantage . Since each node in such networks can act both as a service provider and as a client , they are subject to different attacks . Therefore it is vital to manage confidence for these vulnerable environments in order to eliminate unsafe peers . This paper investigates the use of genetic ...
متن کاملConservation vs. Consensus in Peer-to-Peer Preservation Systems
The problem of digital preservation is widely acknowledged, but the underlying assumptions implicit to the design of systems that address this problem have not been analyzed explicitly. We identify two basic approaches to address the problem of digital preservation using peer-to-peer systems: conservation and consensus. We highlight the design tradeoffs involved in using the two general approac...
متن کاملA Scalable Semantic Peer-to-peer System
Peer-to-peer computing is emerging as a new distributed computing paradigm for many novel applications that involve exchange of information among a large number of peers with little centralized coordination. Scalability is without doubt the foremost requirement for a peer-to-peer system. To obtain a high factor of scalability, we partition network search space using a global ontology. Our propo...
متن کاملEconomic Measures to Resist Attacks on a Peer-to-Peer Network
Peer-to-peer systems in which the peers are truly autonomous have valuable properties, including resistance to certain forms of organizational failure and legal attack. Unfortunately, they can be vulnerable to malign peers. In the context of the LOCKSS system, a peer-to-peer digital preservation system for e-journals, we describe a set of techniques that enable a large population of autonomous ...
