Abstract

In order to deal with the problems in P2P systems of file sharing such as unreliability of the service, security risk and attacks caused by malicious peers, a novel Trust Model based on Multinomial subjective logic and Risk mechanism (MR-TM) is proposed. According to the multinomial subjective logic theory, the model introduces the risk mechanism. It assesses and quantifies the peers’ risk, through computing the resource value, vulnerability, threat level, and finally gets the trust value by the risk value and the reputation value. The introduction of the risk value can reflect the recent behaviors of the peers better and make the system more sensitive to malicious acts. Finally, the effectiveness and feasibility of the model is illustrated by the simulation experiment designed with Peersim.
