While the trust paradigm is essential to broadly extend the communication between the environment’s actors, the evaluation of trust becomes a challenge when confronted with initializing the trust relationship and validating the transitive propriety of trust. Whether between users or between organizations, existing solutions work to create for peer to peer networks, flexible and decentralized security mechanisms with trust approach.
