Abstract

SummaryThe combination of edge computing (EC) and the Internet of Things is a hot research topic. And security is one of the most important problems to be solved. The trust measurement of devices is an effective way to solve the security problem, and the lack of a unified trust measurement model makes the untrusted devices destroy the quality of service. Establishing a reliable trust relationship between devices can effectively improve the security of the system. A decentralized trust measurement model for devices is proposed. First, a decentralized trust measurement framework is proposed, which combines EC with blockchain technology to establish a decentralized hierarchical structure; second, the credibility of devices is measured from multilevel and multi‐attribute; finally, a feedback trust filtering mechanism is designed to filter reliable feedback information, and then the trust between devices and the comprehensive trust of devices are calculated. Experiments and analysis show that the proposed decentralized trust measurement model can effectively measure the trust degree of devices and resist various malicious feedback attacks.
