Abstract

The diversity of the kinds of interactions between principals in distributed computing systems, especially critical infrastructures, has expanded rapidly in recent years. However, the state of the art in trust management is not yet sufficient to support this diversity of interactions. This paper presents a rationale and design for much richer trust management than is possible today. It presents a set of requirements for more generalized trust management and an analysis of their necessity. A new trust management framework is presented that supports dynamic and composable trust.
