Peer-to-Peer Privacy Preserving Reputation Inquiry: An Agent Assistant Approach
This research presents a privacy preserving peer-to-peer communication mechanism that allows peers using their personal agents to obtain reputation information of each other through a pair of trustworthy mediator proxies. A mediator proxy is considered trustworthy, if even when it is compromised, it can guarantee three conditions: (1) the anonymity of the identity of the responders and the targ...
متن کاملDesign of the OpenPrivacy Distributed Reputation System
We describe the design of a reputation system which can incorporate a trust network of users (identities) in order to measure the quality of any arbitrary resource (including any other user or object). This system has the characteristics of being able to calculate reputations in a distributed peer-to-peer network and is attack-repellent to all but the most powerful adversaries. Reputes are used...
متن کاملA Group Management Protocol for P2P Networks
Ad hoc-like friend-to-friend (F2F) networks are an important part of the third generation peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. F2F networks offer their users more anonymity and privacy, but make user reputation tracking very hard. In this paper, I present a group management based protocol for F2F networks and evaluate its performance in solving balance between privacy and reputation in these networks.
متن کاملMethods for Computing Trust and Reputation While Preserving Privacy
Trust and Reputation systems in distributed environments attain widespread interest as online communities are becoming an inherent part of the daily routine of Internet users. Trust-based models enable safer operation within communities to which information exchange and peer to peer interaction are centric. Several models for trust based reputation have been suggested recently, among them the K...
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...
