Abstract
Accountability within electronic commerce protocols has tremendous significance, especially those that require answerability for the actions taken by participants. In this study, the authors evaluate the delegation of accountability based on the Sequenced Packet Exchange (SPX) protocol. The study emphasizes the concept of provability as a benchmark to formalize accountability. Moreover, this paper proposed a new framework that enables principals to delegate individual rights to other principals and how the delegator's accountability is handed over or retained, which provides the crucial functionality of tracing how accountability is distributed among principals within a system. The study provides a novel solution to accountability challenges and analysis of protocols, such as introducing novel conditions for distributing essential credentials among the grantor and the grantee and analyzing delegation-based protocols. The approach adopted will help prevent potential compromises of the integrity of online transactions. By extension, it will also serve as a best practice solution for settling legal disputes among principals.
Highlights
The advent of cutting-edge technologies such as Big Data, Cloud Computing, the Internet of Things (IoT), and WebBased Distributed applications has increased the need for electronic commerce transactions and other web-based services
If "X Says" where X is the delegator, and Y is the delegate, principal X should be able to prove that Y is answerable for the actions executed on the delegated set of rights listed in Ψ, which can be denoted as delegator (X) CanProve (KDel Authenticates delegate(Y))
The analysis will start with Sequenced Packet Exchange (SPX) without delegation, and the objective of this section is to justify if the SPX protocol without delegation will be able to still prove accountability among principals by using the delegation key (KDel) as mentioned earlier based on Kailar's framework, denoted as "S CanProve (KDel Authenticates C)." In this case, both the delegate and the delegator's objective is to prove what they are answerable for and the answerability of the other principal
