In this paper, we describe a reputation-based trust management protocol for P2P networks where users rate the reliability of parties they deal with, and share this information with their peers. The protocol helps establishing trust among good peers as well as identifying the malicious ones. Results of various simulation experiments show that the proposed system can be highly effective in preventing the spread of malicious content in P2P networks.EnglishPeer to peer computingNetwork serversComputer network managementComputer networksElectronic mailComputational modelingComputer simulationWireless application protocolComputer wormsPeer-to-peer (P2P) networksTrust management systemConference Paper10.1109/CCGrid.2004.1336575
