To reduce the influence of conflict evidences caused by malicious nods, the consistent intensity is introduced to preprocess conflict evidences before using the D-S combination rule to improve the reliability of the D-S based trust evaluation. The nodes with high trust values will be selected as the routing nodes to insure the routing security, and the trust values are used as heuristic functions of the ant colony routing algorithm. The simulation tests are conducted by using the network simulator NS2 to observe the outcomes of performance metrics of packets loss rate and average end-to-end delay etc. to indirectly evaluate the security issue under the attack of inside malicious nodes. The simulation results show that the proposed trust routing algorithm can efficiently resist malicious attacks in terms of keeping performances of the average end-to-end delay, the throughtput and the routing packet overhead under attacking from malicious nodes.展开更多

One of them is the cloud service selection problem. As increasingly boosting cloud services are offered through the internet and some of them may be not reliable or even malicious, how to select trustworthy cloud services for cloud users is a big challenge. In this paper, we propose a multi-dimensional trust-aware cloud service selection mechanism based on evidential reasoning(ER) approach that integrates both perception-based trust value and reputation based trust value, which are derived from direct and indirect trust evidence respectively, to identify trustworthy services. Here, multi-dimensional trust evidence, which reflects the trustworthiness of cloud services from different aspects, is elicited in the form of historical users feedback ratings. Then, the ER approach is applied to aggregate the multi-dimensional trust ratings to obtain the real-time trust value and select the most trustworthy cloud service of certain type for the active users. Finally, the fresh feedback from the active users will update the trust evidence for other service users in the future.展开更多

The "jury user" is designed to collaboratively examine the reputation of the cognitive user in the networks and to perform data fusion and spectrum allocation for distributed cognitive radio networks. Simulation analysis results show that the proposed scheme can ensure accuracy and fairness in trust evaluation and improve effectiveness and flexibility of spectrum allocation.展开更多

文摘This paper proposes a trust ant colony routing algorithm by introducing a node trust evaluation model based on the D-S evidence theory into the ant colony routing protocol to improve the security of wireless sensor networks. To reduce the influence of conflict evidences caused by malicious nods, the consistent intensity is introduced to preprocess conflict evidences before using the D-S combination rule to improve the reliability of the D-S based trust evaluation. The nodes with high trust values will be selected as the routing nodes to insure the routing security, and the trust values are used as heuristic functions of the ant colony routing algorithm. The simulation tests are conducted by using the network simulator NS2 to observe the outcomes of performance metrics of packets loss rate and average end-to-end delay etc. to indirectly evaluate the security issue under the attack of inside malicious nodes. The simulation results show that the proposed trust routing algorithm can efficiently resist malicious attacks in terms of keeping performances of the average end-to-end delay, the throughtput and the routing packet overhead under attacking from malicious nodes.

文摘In the last few years, cloud computing as a new computing paradigm has gone through significant development, but it is also facing many problems. One of them is the cloud service selection problem. As increasingly boosting cloud services are offered through the internet and some of them may be not reliable or even malicious, how to select trustworthy cloud services for cloud users is a big challenge. In this paper, we propose a multi-dimensional trust-aware cloud service selection mechanism based on evidential reasoning(ER) approach that integrates both perception-based trust value and reputation based trust value, which are derived from direct and indirect trust evidence respectively, to identify trustworthy services. Here, multi-dimensional trust evidence, which reflects the trustworthiness of cloud services from different aspects, is elicited in the form of historical users feedback ratings. Then, the ER approach is applied to aggregate the multi-dimensional trust ratings to obtain the real-time trust value and select the most trustworthy cloud service of certain type for the active users. Finally, the fresh feedback from the active users will update the trust evidence for other service users in the future.

文摘In the trust management scheme of the distributed cognitive radio networks, the absence of the central control devices cause many problems such as a lack of standardized control for trust computation, and the absence of the decision makers in trust evaluation and collaborative decision making. A trust management mechanism based on the jury system for distributed cognitive radio networks is proposed in this paper. The "jury user" is designed to collaboratively examine the reputation of the cognitive user in the networks and to perform data fusion and spectrum allocation for distributed cognitive radio networks. Simulation analysis results show that the proposed scheme can ensure accuracy and fairness in trust evaluation and improve effectiveness and flexibility of spectrum allocation.
文摘The blockchain,with its key characteristics of decentralization,persistence,anonymity,and auditability,has become a solution to overcome the overdependence and lack of trust for a traditional public key infrastructure on third-party institutions.Because of these characteristics,the blockchain is suitable for solving certain open problems in the service-oriented social network,where the unreliability of submitted reviews of service vendors can cause serious security problems.To solve the unreliability problems of submitted reviews,this paper first proposes a blockchain-based identity authentication scheme and a new trusted service evaluation model by introducing the scheme into a service evaluation model.The new trusted service evaluation model consists of the blockchain-based identity authentication scheme,evaluation submission module,and evaluation publicity module.In the proposed evaluation model,only users who have successfully been authenticated can submit reviews to service vendors.The registration and authentication records of users’identity and the reviews for service vendors are all stored in the blockchain network.The security analysis shows that this model can ensure the credibility of users’reviews for service vendors,and other users can obtain credible reviews of service vendors via the review publicity module.The experimental results also show that the proposed model has a lower review submission delay than other models.

文摘When dealing with the ratings from users,traditional collaborative filtering algorithms do not consider the credibility of rating data,which affects the accuracy of similarity.To address this issue,the paper proposes an improved algorithm based on classification and user trust.It firstly classifies all the ratings by the categories of items.And then,for each category,it evaluates the trustworthy degree of each user on the category and imposes the degree on the ratings of the user.Finally,the algorithm explores the similarities between users,finds the nearest neighbors,and makes recommendations within each category.Simulations show that the improved algorithm outperforms the traditional collaborative filtering algorithms and enhances the accuracy of recommendation.

文摘Smart city refers to the information system with Intemet of things and cloud computing as the core tec hnology and government management and industrial development as the core content,forming a large scale,heterogeneous and dynamic distributed Internet of things environment between different Internet of things.There is a wide demand for cooperation between equipment and management institutions in the smart city.Therefore,it is necessary to establish a trust mechanism to promote cooperation,and based on this,prevent data disorder caused by the interaction between honest terminals and malicious temminals.However,most of the existing research on trust mechanism is divorced from the Internet of things environment,and does not consider the characteristics of limited computing and storage capacity and large differences of Internet of hings devices,resuling in the fact that the research on abstract trust trust mechanism cannot be directly applied to the Internet of things;On the other hand,various threats to the Internet of things caused by security vulnerabilities such as collision attacks are not considered.Aiming at the security problems of cross domain trusted authentication of Intelligent City Internet of things terminals,a cross domain trust model(CDTM)based on self-authentication is proposed.Unlike most trust models,this model uses self-certified trust.The cross-domain process of internet of things(IoT)terminal can quickly establish a trust relationship with the current domain by providing its trust certificate stored in the previous domain interaction.At the same time,in order to alleviate the collision attack and improve the accuracy of trust evaluation,the overall trust value is calculated by comprehensively considering the quantity weight,time attenuation weight and similarity weight.Finally,the simulation results show that CDTM has good anti collusion attack ability.The success rate of malicious interaction will not increase significantly.Compared with other models,the resource consumption of our proposed model is significantly reduced.

文摘As the smart grid develops rapidly,abundant connected devices offer various trading data.This raises higher requirements for secure and effective data storage.Traditional centralized data management does not meet the above requirements.Currently,smart grid with conventional consortium blockchain can solve the above issues.However,in the face of a large number of nodes,existing consensus algorithms often perform poorly in terms of efficiency and throughput.In this paper,we propose a trust-based hierarchical consensus mechanism(THCM)to solve this problem.Firstly,we design a hierarchical mechanism to improve the efficiency and throughput.Then,intra-layer nodes use an improved Raft consensus algorithm and inter-layer nodes use the Byzantine Fault Tolerance algorithm.Thirdly,we propose a trust evaluation method to improve the election process of Raft.Finally,we implement a prototype system to evaluate the performance of THCM.The results demonstrate that the consensus efficiency is improved by 19.8%,the throughput is improved by 12.34%,and the storage is reduced by 37.9%.

文摘Because trust is regarded as an essential secured relationship within a distributed network environment,selecting services over the Internet from the viewpoint of trust has been a major trend.Current research about trust model and evaluation in the context of Web services does not rationally and accurately reflect some essential characteristics of trust such as subjective uncertainty and dynamism.In this paper,we analyze some important characteristics of trust,and some key factors that affect the trust relation in the Web service environment.Accordingly,we propose a trust model based on Cloud Model theory to describe the subjective uncertainty of trust factors.A time-related backward cloud generation algorithm is given to express the dynamism of trust.Furthermore,according to the trust model and algorithm,a formalized calculation approach is provided to evaluate the trust degree of services requestors in providers.Our experiment shows that the evaluation of trust degree can effectively support trust-decisions and provide a helpful exploitation for selecting services based on the viewpoint of trust.
