Abstract

Agents usually encapsulate their principals' personal data attributes, which can be disclosed to other agents during agent interactions, producing a potential loss of privacy. We propose self-disclosure decision-making mechanisms for agents to decide whether disclosing personal data attributes to other agents is acceptable or not. Moreover, we also propose secure agent infrastructures to protect the information that agents decide to disclose from undesired accesses.
