Private Reputation Schemes for P2P systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The risks from participating in P2P transactions are relatively high. To mitigate such risk a reputation scheme could be applied. Reputation schemes have emerged as a promising means for enabling electronic transactions with strangers. In order to gain optimal results from the reputation scheme, the privacy of feedback provider should be correctly addressed. The feedback provider should be allowed to leave a feedback without fear of retaliation. Unlike in centralized schemes, privacy seems impractical for P2P systems especially when accountability of feedback is also required. This paper considers how privacy can still be provided within the accountability requirement.

GGRA: 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 کاملReputation-based Trust Management in Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Systems
Trust is required in file sharing peer-to-peer (P2P) systems to achieve better cooperation among peers and reduce malicious uploads. In reputation-based P2P systems, reputation is used to build trust among peers based on their past transactions and feedbacks from other peers. In these systems, reputable peers will usually be selected to upload requested files, decreasing significantly malicious...
متن کاملThe Design of A Distributed Rating Scheme for Peer-to-peer Systems
There exist many successful examples of online reputation (or rating) systems, such as on-line markets and e-tailer ratings. However, for peer-to-peer applications, an explicit ratings subsystem has often been ignored in system design because of the implicit assumption of trust and altruism among P2P users. This assumption might be true (or might not matter) when a P2P network is still in its i...
متن کاملTrust Calculation and Management in P2P and Grid Systems
The significance of efficient security mechanisms in P2P and Grid systems is unquestionable, since security is considered to be a quality of service factor for such systems. Traditional security mechanisms in P2P and Grid systems include encryption, sand-boxing and other access control and authentication mechanisms. Unfortunately these techniques incur additional overhead. By using trust and re...
متن کاملData confidentiality and reputation schemes in distributed information systems
In this thesis we discuss two demanding problems from the field of computer and communication security that involve trust. The first is known as the database service provider problem: A database owner wants a database service provider (DSP) to host her database. She only trusts this DSP to a limited extent, so she does not want to rely solely on contractual solutions. It is therefore necessary ...
