A Dynamic Trust Management Scheme to Mitigate Malware Proliferation in P2P Networks

A Dynamic Trust Management Scheme to Mitigate Malware Proliferation in P2P Networks

The surge of peer-to-peer (P2P) networks consisting of thousands of of hosts makes them a breeding ground for malware proliferation. Although some existing studies have shown that malware proliferation can pose significant threats to P2P networks, defending against such an attack is largely an open...
