Abstract

A service-oriented approach to dynamic refinement of security enforcement is described in this paper. This is based on a closed loop feedback system where live distributed trust measures are used to adapt access control settings in a changing threat environment. A general trust overlay architecture and model are presented. Some specific application scenarios are discussed, in particular spam filtering and distributed intrusion detection in mobile ad hoc networks. It is shown using simulations of some specific scenarios that this dynamic system is robust and has the potential to enhance security and access control efficiency.
